Be careful with how many disk pool volumes you create. Each volume uses 1 thread, add this to all of the other threads in use, our TSM server would die at around 1800 active threads.

I was wondering if anyone sees this in the real world? I posted the other day about managing predefined volumes in a file type devclass, and the only answer I got said they were using random access pools. I would MUCH rather have a random access pool, so if there is no problem with this, I will convert over to random access. Thanks for any input.
