Lucian, This is what we're doing to save 3592 tapes:
Incremental backup and full DB backup go to flat files, shift those files to offsite or onsite to Disk Storage Poll and let migrate functions put them on tapes. (We have servers onsite & offsite 11 miles away for disaster). Hoa.

Hi list, I'm rather green with TSM, actually working through my first client-project with it and have come to a (small for sure) problem System: TSM 5.2 on SuSe SLES8, feeding an Adic Scalar24 with one IBM-LTO2. Basically, the system works. Whenever I command a dbBackup, wether full or incremetal, TSM wants to write to a scratch tape only. If i give the volser of a tape used for an earlier dbbackup explicitly, TSM says the tape is full (which it is not). Can someone point me to the right direction? Regards, Lucian Greis MKV GmbH
