I have the ANS1076E Error on TSM which should not be present
Hi everyone:
i have my dsm.opt on TSM 6.4 Configured to backup the following path:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.BES\MSSQL
But the backup is failing with this error:
ANS1076E The specified directory path 'C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient\
My question is: Why the tsm client is searching the file on : C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient if the dsm.opt is pointing to: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.BES\MSSQL
Thanks in advance.

Wool,
This is how i got the line on the dsm.opt
INCLUDE.ARCHIVE "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.BES\MSSQL\*
It is doubled quoted.

Have these quotes always been there or did you add them recently? In the latter case, did you restart the scheduler service?
It could also be that the dsm.opt file (or at least the include line in question) is corrupt. Did you perhaps copy and paste it from somewhere else? In this case I’d suggest writing it new, this time “by hand”.
Sorry for the stupid question: Does the concerned path actually exist?
If nothing of the above helps I fear that I’m at a loss, somehow ...

Wool, The quotes has been always there. the dsm.opt file was created from scratch (i reinstalled the client) and the path actually exist.
My doubt is why tsm is going to this path:
C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient\
instead going to this path:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.BES\MSSQL\*
Taking all this in count : could be a solution to exclude the "weird" path: C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient\
if you think it could work please can you give me the best comand line to do it?
Thanks as usual Wool-

You could of course exclude the wrong path from archiving, but I’m rather sure that this won’t lead to the correct path being archived.
EXCLUDE.ARCHIVE “C:\... ... etc.”
Please be aware that the inclexcl list is processed “bottom up “ , so add the new line at the end of the list.
But as I said, I don’t think this will improve anything.

Hi,
the following is somewhat forensics analisys ... since it happens to be so weird ... but it will be just a guess which you should further investigate since I do not have my hands on your servers ..
The 2 facts that your backup belongs to a MS SQL folder and the very weird path "C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient\
So, if this is the case (that you do have TDP installed) I'd go find something into the TDP GUI to see what dsm files it is using to do the backups.
You may as well check the environment variables in use, because as Wool wrote above, that path is assumed to be “relative”, and I do not believe in coincidences.
cheers

Hi max!
Thanks for your words. Let me give you a little context here: the server has been builded from scratch. No TDP installed. my usual procedure once i got the path to backup:
1- i make the registration on the TSM server
2- i make the association to the schedule
3- i install the client on the server.
4- i ran the wizard to generate the .opt and the service.
Here you have the last execution. Please can you take a look?

Then it is right as Wool has told you ...
TSM is processing C:\Program
then
C:\Files\
and so on ...
you have set the wrong syntax
you need to consider spaces and your syntax must be wrong.
try the following syntax:
upd sched <yourdomain> <yoursched> objects='"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.BES\MSSQL\*
and so on for all the paths.
It is first char '
and then
char "
and reverse at the end
hope this helps

max,
Thanks for your help. I just made the update on the tsm server:
tsm: TSM_var>upd sched pd_files VWARPASVBES05 objects='"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.BES\MSSQL\*
ANR2502I Schedule VWARPASVBES05 updated in policy domain PD_FILES.
Should i do the same modifications (first ' and then ") on the dsm.opt file on the client server?
Thanks again.
Santi.

hi,
the syntax should be:

max
the syntax should be:
objects='"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.BES\MSSQL\*
max
Max , sorry if i missunderstand you. The only path that i should backup is:
'"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.BES\MSSQL\*
I made the update in the schedule, should i do the same on the dsm.opt?
Thanks.
'"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.BES\MSSQL\*
I made the update in the schedule, should i do the same on the dsm.opt?
Thanks.
Please note: When following max’ suggestions you should no longer use the INCLUDE.ARCHIVE directive because it’s a schedule option now. Remove it from dsm.opt. Next, since you want to run an “archive” operation the schedule in question must be set to ACTION ARCHIVE, but I think this is done already.
Finally, be aware that no action other than archiving the mentioned path will be performed by that schedule.
