PowerScale OneFS 9.8.0.0 Backup and Recovery Guide

Configure your system for backup and restore operations

With IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM), you must configure your system for performing backup and restore operations.

Define a device class by running the following command:

define devclass <class-name> devtype=<dev-type> library=<library-name> mountretention=0 estcapacity=120g

The following command defines a device class called ISICLASS:

define devclass ISICLASS devtype=NAS library=ISILIB mountretention=0 estcapacity=120g

Define an NDMP storage pool by running the following command:

define stgpool <ndmp-pool-name> <class-name> maxscratch=10 dataformat=ndmpdump

The following command defines an NDMP storage pool called NDMPPOOL:

define stgpool NDMPPOOL ISICLASS maxscratch=10 dataformat=ndmpdump

Define a device class for the table of contents (TOC) of the files to be backed up by running the following command:
```
def devclass TOC devtype=<dev-type>
```
The following command defines a device class for the TOC for a device type called file:
```
def devclass TOC devtype=file
```
Define a storage TOC by running the following command:
```
define stgpool <TOC_POOL_NAME> DISK
```
The following command defines a storage TOC called TOC:
```
define stgpool TOC DISK
```

Define a volume for the storage pool by running the following command:

define volume <TOC_NAME> <PATH> formatsize=<SIZE_IN_MB> wait=no

The following command defines a storage pool volume:

define volume TOC'e:\\Program Files\\Tivoli\\TSM\\server1\\tsm_6.toc.dsm'formatsize=1024 wait=no

Define a domain by running the following command:
```
def domain domain_name
```
The following command defines a domain called NASDOMAIN:
```
def domain NASDOMAIN
```
Define a policy by running the following command:
```
def pol domain_name policy_name
```
The following command defines a policy called NASPOLICY:
```
def pol NASDOMAIN NASPOLICY
```
Define a management class by running the following command:
```
define mgmtclass <domain_name> <policy_set_name> <mgmt_class_name>
```
The following command defines a management class called NASMGMT:
```
define mgmtclass STANDARD STANDARD NASMGMT
```

Define a copy group by running the following command:

define copygroup <domain_name> <policy_set_name> <mgmt_class_name> type=backup destination=<ndmp_pool_name> [serialization=static] tocdestination=<toc_pool_name>

The following command defines a copy group:

define copygroup STANDARD STANDARD ISIMC type=backup destination=NDMPPOOL serialization=static tocdestination=TOCPOOL

Assign a default management class by running the following command:
```
assign defmgmtclass <domain_name> <policy_set_name> <mgmt_class_name>
```
To allow a TOC to be backed up to disk, define a specific management class because the standard management class cannot be modified. The following command assigns the ISIMC management class as the default for the standard policy set and the standard domain:
```
assign defmgmtclass STANDARD STANDARD ISIMC
```
Validate the policy set by running the following command:
```
validate policyset <domain_name> <policy_set_name>
```
The following command validates the standard policy set.
```
validate policyset STANDARD STANDARD
```
Activate the policy set by running the following command:
```
activate policyset <domain_name> <policy_set_name>
```
The following command activates the standard policy set:
```
activate policyset STANDARD STANDARD
```
Update the TSM node to the domain that you created in step 6 by running the following command:
```
update node <ip_addr_or_node_name> <domain_name>
```
The following command updates the node to the domain that you created in step 6:
```
activate policyset 10.27.49.39 NASDOMAIN
```

Update the path to the NAS library by running the following command:

update path <ip_addr_or_node_name> <tape_library> srctype=datamover desttype=libr

The following command updates the path to the NAS library for node001:

update path node001 ISILIB srctype=datamover desttype=libr online=yes
