Hi All

I have the following dilemma..

We are using TDP for SQL version 2.2.1. We are backing up the data via the SAN 
(LANFREE) using the storage agent. 
The SQL metadata is going via the LAN to a diskpool on the TSM server. The backups all 
go through well enough, 
however when attempting a restore or trying to get fileinfo for SQL backups, the 
metadata cannot get retrieved from the diskpool.I can however restore data from tape 
lanfree. 
If the data is migrated to tape and the waitfortapemount box is checked in the GUI 
then the tape is mounted and the metadata retrieved. 
But if I disable the LANFREE path in the dsm.opt file, then the metadata filegroup 
info can be retrieved. IT cannot however retrieve the metadata from diskpool and data 
from tape at the same time  if LANFREE is enabled. 
This is most annoying. I get this behaviour either via the GUI or using tdpsqlc from 
the command line.
TSM server 5.1.1.6
TSM storage agent 5.1.1.6
TDP for SQL 2.2.1

Any help greatly appreciated

Kind Regards
