Today is Friday and instead of cruising around in low gear I am burning brain cells on my latest TASK. How is it that tasks always turn in to mind bending, brain cell burning projects before it is all said and done?
Currently I am trying to figure out how to backup our eDirectory database on our Windoze servers. More specifically I was tasked with figuring out how to utilize emtools and the ebox/java client to backup the open files that are being cached to memory while eDirectory is running. Open File Services in Tivoli Storage Management probably will not get a copy of the files open in memory. So, embox is supposed to be able to take a snapshot of the eDirectory database files that are cached to memory and create a hot backup image that TSM can then backup to the SAN and then to tape. Well, I have until Tuesday to have this accomplished so wish me luck...
