Note: The Tivoli Storage Manager Backup-Archive Client can back up GPFS file systems. VERITAS file systems are not supported. AFS® and DFS file system structures cannot be recreated from backups. If the root user has the appropriate AFS or DFS permissions, then SysBack can back up the data. Note: The Tivoli Storage Manager Backup-Archive Client can back up AFS and DFS file systems. Compression should not be set from within the SysBack backup commands when the backup destination is a Tivoli Storage Manager server. Compression of data is controlled through Tivoli Storage Manager configuration options. Files, directories, file systems, or logical volumes that you would like excluded from backup processing must be defined in the SysBack exclude list. Tivoli Storage Manager exclude processing does not apply to this backup process. If you are using SysBack's incremental backup function, and the destination is a Tivoli Storage Manager server, you must ensure that an adequate number of versions exist specified to avoid inadvertently expiring off members of a full incremental backup set. Currently, there is no tracking that ties an individual incremental backup to the rest of the incremental backups in a series. For example, if you specify to keep three backup versions in your Tivoli Storage Manager copy group, but do a level 0 backup, and then level 4 backups every friday, by the end of the month your level 0 will have been versioned off by Tivoli Storage Manager. 20.3.2 Basic setup and configuration tasks In order to perform backup, list, verify, query, or restore operations with a Tivoli Storage Manager server, you must perform the following configuration tasks: Register a Tivoli Storage Manager node. Before you can perform any communications with a Tivoli Storage Manager server, you must first register a Tivoli Storage Manager node and define a password. The password will be initialized when the Tivoli Storage Manager virtual device is created. If your password is already initialized, such as when you are using the same node name as your Tivoli Storage Manager 670 IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Implementation Guide
