Its designed to work that way. I assume the reasoning is that you want to keep db backups offsite so you can recover your db in case of a disaster. If so, you want to start each db backup on a new tape so that it can go offsite.
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 9/15/2004 9:13:46 AM >>> 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
