for tsm, there is a solution called sysback to tsm, which works in combination of tsm and nim server, you back up to tsm, but you don't back up filesets, the filesets come from nim server, your configuration is backed up of course


so you back up data filesystems in rootvg, fileset configuration, but not the lpp it self, which reduces the amount of space needed a lot
and a big advantage, when booting from nim with sysback you want restore, you can choose vg pp size, lv attributes, lvs to restore and so on


our sysback environment was set up by ibm, don't know how to do this manually, since you need configuratin and extensions on the tsm it self

but if its woth for you, ask your ibm key accounter, or check out redbooks
for sysback to tsm

flash copy is a mechanism of the storage box, it generates a "snapshot" of your luns, this is a part of the management software of your box, sometimes extra licenses are needed

showfsets(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      showfsets(8)

NAME
showfsets - Display information about filesets in an AdvFS file domain SYNOPSIS
/sbin/showfsets [-b | -q] [-k] domain [fileset...] OPTIONS
Lists the names of the filesets in a file domain, without additional detail. Displays the total number of blocks and the number of free 1K blocks. Displays the quota limits for filesets in a domain. OPERANDS
Specifies the full path name of the AdvFS file domain. Specifies the name of one or more filesets in the file domain. DESCRIPTION
The showfsets command displays the filesets (or clone filesets) and their characteristics in a specified domain. The characteristics of a fileset are: Fileset Identifier A fileset identifier is a combination of the file-domain identifier and an additional set of numbers that identify the fileset within the file domain. For example, the fileset identifier 2be95ef4.000a129.1.8001 consists of the following: 2be95ef4.000a129 1.8001 Clone status The status items of a clone fileset vary, depending on the fileset. Status items can include: Clone is Specifies the name of a clone fileset, if one exists for the parent fileset. Clone of Specifies the name of the parent fileset, if the displayed fileset is a clone fileset. Revision Specifies the number of times you revised a clone fileset. For example, if you recreate a clone fileset of the same parent fileset three times, the revision value is 3. Files Specifies the number of files in the fileset and the current file usage limits (quotas). SLim, the soft limit, is a quota that can be exceeded for a fixed period of time and HLim, the hard limit, is a quota that cannot be exceeded. Blocks Specifies the number of blocks that are in use by a mounted fileset and the current block soft and hard usage limits (quotas). For filesets that are not mounted, zero blocks will display. For an accurate display, the fileset must be mounted. Quota Status Specifies which quota types are enabled (enforced). The showfsets command with the -q option set displays block and file information for a specified domain or for one or more named filesets in the domain. The characteristics of a named fileset are: BF (block flag) Specifies block (B) and file (F) usage limits. A + in this field means that the soft limit is exceeded; a * means that the hard limit is reached. Block (512) Limits Specifies the number of blocks used, the soft limit (the number of blocks that can be exceeded for a period of time), the hard limit (the number of blocks that cannot be exceeded), and the grace period (the remaining time for which the soft limit may be exceeded). File Limits Specifies the number of files used, the soft and hard file limits for the fileset, and the grace period remaining. Note On a TruCluster Server, showfsets can sometimes report incorrect disk usage. Data in CFS client caches is synchronized to the server at least every 30 seconds. The disk usage reported does not account for dirty data in client caches that has not yet been synchro- nized to the server. EXAMPLES
The following example shows the command line and resulting display for the showfsets command: # showfsets usr_domain usr Id : 2f1dabd6.00059d50.1.8001 Clone is : usr_clone Files : 17644, SLim= 0, HLim= 0 Blocks (512) : 90582, SLim= 212000, HLim= 256000 Quota Status : user=on group=on usr_clone Id : 2f1dabd6.00059d50.3.8052 Clone of : usr Revision : 82 The following example shows the command line and resulting display when the fileset quota option is set: # showfsets -q test_domain Block (512) Limits File Limits Fileset BF used soft hard grace used soft hard grace fileset1 +- 1750 1500 2000 11:32 35 300 400 SEE ALSO
