We installed the above combination and it goes to a cached diskpool on a AIX 4.3.3 TSM server running TSM Server 4.1.5.0 Well, files grow with compression (anr0534w seen on server), retries, retries, retries/FAILS ! anr0534w (no additional cached space will be cleared) I've opened a PMR with Tivoli but haven't heard back yet...
