From 4.1 onwards there is Adaptive sub-file backup for Mobile Clients.
I don't use it or know much about it but I think it allows you to backup
the changed bytes/blocks of a file on a laptop rather than the whole
changed file.
This may be of some use to you depending on the data they are backing
Depends how many tape drives you have and how many migration is set to use
I would have thought.
If there are four drives and migration is allowed to use them all it will.
Therefore four tapes will be mounted but its unlikely all will be written
to fully leaving you with several filling tapes as
Try a q path to see if the paths to the drives are ok.

This HP library sounds very similar to the SUN L20/40/60 Library
(Re-badged HP KIT) We have one using DLT and it functions ok. It has also

most part, from a web type interface.
ADIC Scalars are also supported I think.
Last retail price I had on a frame was about £21k though discounts are
available.
3590H. I looked into these, they can be SCSI or Fibre channel. If you
already have SCSI the default upgrade is to 3590H SCSI.
For a few hundred £ more you can have them converted to FC at the same

Any idea if moving database data between volumes like this will free any
fragmented space as it moves the data?

It may just be that the file had been updated between the end of the
previous incremental and the start of this one. Consequently it would be
flagged for backup when TSM builds its list.
By the time TSM gets around to backing an application or a person could
have amended the file again thus giving
DB backups seems to work ok and I have run them alongside clients
sessions. This how I understand it works, similar to and Oracle backup
really.
The DB backup seems to 'freeze' database activity even if client sessions
are active and generates its image to backup. While the database activity
