David,
why not to create another primary pool and direct that node in such "own"
pool (or shared with few similar requirements nodes). Setting collocation
off will have little or no impact on your restores. In fact allowing
backups to parallelize, you will set the ground for parallel restores.

Thanks Geoff. We'd much rather have the session wait during backups
than during restore so we'll leave collocation on and ignore the
MediaW.

David,
We have had these same types of problems when collocation is set to
yes.
Try turning it off and running your backup again, I bet you will see it
pick
up more drives.

Collocation is set YES. Can collocation not go to multiple tapes?

David,
Have you verified that collocation is set to NO on the tape storage
pool
that this client is backing up to.

Subject: MediaW
I have a client node that backs up over the lan to tape. When I do a
Q
SESS during a backup, there are 3-4 sessions running. One session has
a
tape mounted but one of the others remains in MediaW. The node has
Maximum Mount Points Allowed: 2 defined. The device class has Mount
Limit: DRIVES defined. There are empty tape drives available. Any
ideas why a tape is not being mounted?
TSM server is TSM 5.1.6.3 running on AIX 5.1 64 bit mode. Client is
TSM 5.1.5.11 running on Aix 5.1 32 bit mode.
