Tivoli Space Manager for UNIX Using the Hierarchical Storage Management Clients

dsmreconcile

You must have root user authority to use this command.

The dsmreconcile command synchronizes the file systems on your client node with the TSM server that you contact for space management services. Use this command at any time to perform some or all of the reconciliation tasks for one or more file systems. Specify how often to perform automatic reconciliation with the reconcileinterval option in your dsm.sys file.

Note:
The dsmautomig and dsmreconcile processes must be found with the PATH variable, or the dsmmonitord daemon cannot perform reconcilation and threshold migration.

If the HSM client is processing a file system whose server stanza is different from that of the last processed file system, a new session is started for each file that is migrated.

The dsmreconcile command traverses your managed file systems during the following conditions:

Note:
When you upgrade from a previous version of HSM, the next time you run dsmreconcile on a previously managed file system, it will force a full file system tree traversal. This process to update the TSM client and server databases to the new format occurs only once for each previously-managed file system.

Syntax

>>-dsmreconcile--+--------------+--+---------------------+-----><
                 | .----------. |  | .-----------------. |
                 | V          | |  | V                 | |

Parameters

-detail or -d
Prints progress messages while receiving the list of migrated files from the server.

-fileinfo or -f
Performs reconciliation tasks of the server and premigration databases. This is the default.

-orphancheck or -o
Note: This can take a while to process.

Forces a full file system tree traversal and includes orphan checking during the reconciliation process. The HSM client verifies that a valid copy exists in the spaceman pool of the TSM server. This option overrides a no value that you set for the checkfororphans option in your dsm.sys file. When orphans are located, their names are recorded in the .SpaceMan/orphan.stubs file. In this instance, the dsmautomig command cannot run concurrently with dsmreconcile.

If you want to check for orphans but you do not want to perform full file system tree traversals, specify no on the checkfororphans option in your dsm.sys file. You can then run dsmautomig concurrently with dsmreconcile.

filesystemspec
The name of the file system to reconcile. If you do not specify a file system name, the HSM client reconciles all file systems on your workstation for which space management is active. If you enter more than one file system name, separate each name with at least one blank space.

Examples

Task Command
Start reconciliation for all file systems for which space management is active. dsmreconcile
Start reconciliation for the /migfs1 file system. dsmreconcile /migfs1
Start reconciliation for file systems /home and /test1. dsmreconcile /home /test1
