I have one question regarding TSM and IBM NAS100 box. Can i use NAS100 as a

You specify a DEFINE DRIVE command while you refer to /dev/smc0 which is a

It's possibly that it is not those tapes that are inaccessable but
rather the tape that holds the same data in the primary pool. Assuming
these are copypool tapes, if you try to move data or space reclaim and

Is it possible to share a 3584 Library (FC-LTO2) between a TSM
server(5.1.9.3) on AIX433 and a AS400. Do you need to do
partitioning(and loose an entire drive to the AS400) or can you just
dynamicly share a drive between the as400 and tsm?
Can the AS400 use the drive as if it was locally attached
We back up our AS400 with BRMS and TSM.
Check this out. It works fine for us.

Yes Curtis, this is one of the performance
issues i mentioned. TSM also acts in a similar way when doing backups.
The data is not directly sent to TSM from BRMS, rather cached and then

Even if they have overflow on them, the move data should work
