Yes, you can have two sessions running at the same time. On the client
in the dsm.opt file, there is a parameter you can add -
RESOURCEUTILIZATION X
Where X is the number of sessions you want (really 2x the number).
See docs on Clients for info on this. Generally if you want 2 sessions
set X to 4.
If you are running direct to tape then you don't want more
sessions than drives available.

Hello *SMers,
Here is a situation that we are trying to look at to hopefully cut
down our archive time. I was wondering if any of you have an idea if it
would be possible.
Currently we are running TSM 4.1.2.0 on an AIX 4.3.3.0
We run a nightly archive of 70 GB that is taking just over 8 hours
uncompressed. In our Magstar 3570 we have two different tape drives. My
question follows: Is it possible to be running two different archives at
the same time to cut down the processing time? If it is possible how would
you go at it? I know I see allot of *SMers talking about backup clients at
the same time, but the information we back up comes off of one RS/6000 AIX
server. Is it possible to be running two sessions off the same machine at
the same time?
Any help would be grateful.
Thanks in Advance,
Bill Wheeler
