Hello TSMERS,
Please help. My TSM 5.1 server was previously running on NT4 and I upgraded
to Win 2000. I have a magstar 3570 library and a 3583 lto library

Just a guess but you may want to try it.
Ensure the default class and the one with longest retention in that domain
do not point to a diskpool (while other used direct backups to tape). We
made this work on 4.2.1.15 but actually is unsupported (and maybe I was
just lucky). The problem was when the

So what benefit might we get by using AIX's System Resource Controller

Jack, you might look at our viewacct script -

to exclude a domain.

Use the select command like below. Lets say server to restore is TEST and

select volume_name from volumeusage where node_name='TEST' and stgpool_name
