In the meantime I found the solution for my problem and so I anwser to my own request:
The REGISTER NODE command have a new parameter MAXNUMMP under TSM 4, with a default MAXNUMMP=1. My new configured servernodes could not mount more than 1 Tape. The servernode, which I configured under TSM 3.7, got a MAXNUMP "Unlimited" with the upgrade to TSM 4.1. A backup on virtual volumes needs 2 drives, when MAXCAPACITY is reached and the last file is continued on the next volume. Joern Gehm On May 23, 11:38, J.
