Correct and there shouldn't be any paths on the client systems. Only the library manager needs the paths. You need to setup paths from the library manager to itself and then to the other library clients. We are using this setup with 19 TSM instances accessing a TS3500 library and two library managers.

There are no drive definitions for the "remote" library in the library client, and therefore no element numbers or paths to check. There is a path in the library manager that connects each of the tape drives to the library client, and as I mentioned there is obviously some communication going on. Here's another question that has been asked... When a library client sends migrated data from disk to a tape drive managed by a library manager, does the data flow on fiber from the client to the tape drive directly, or does it flow across the LAN from the client to the manager, and then on fiber from the manager to the tape drive? -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) CDW Berbee System engineer 7145 Boone Avenue North, Suite 140 Brooklyn Park MN 55428-1511 763-592-5963 www.berbee.com The information transmitted in this electronic communication is intended only for the person or entity to whom it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
