Dwight,

Why are you using several backup mgmtclasses? Different libraries? 
I can't explain this behaviour. But if you want approximately the same amount sent to 
each mgmtclass, you can try the following:

MAX_BACK_SESSIONS       15
.....
SERVER         TSM_1
  SESSIONS            4
  BRBACKUPMGTCLASS    A35_PR5_A

SERVER         TSM_2
  SESSIONS            4
  BRBACKUPMGTCLASS    A35_PR5_B

SERVER         TSM_3
  SESSIONS            4
  BRBACKUPMGTCLASS    A35_PR5_C

SERVER         TSM_4
  SESSIONS            3
  BRBACKUPMGTCLASS    A35_PR5_C


TSM_1 - TSM_4 are in this case aliases for the same TSM-server. In this scenario it 
can still happen that one mgmt-class gets more files (=data?) then the others if these 
classes are based on different tape-technology.

Subject: TDP/R3 & BRBACKUPMGTCLASS (odd behavior)


tsm client is a sun solaris 8 running tsm 4.2.2.1 with tdp/r3 3.2.0.10
(yes, I'm behind on a few things... )

Initially running with
MAX_BACK_SESSIONS       15
BRBACKUPMGTCLASS   A35_PR5_A A35_PR5_B A35_PR5_C A35_PR5_D

I saw session 1 use mgmtclass A35_PR5_A
      session 2 use mgmtclass A35_PR5_B
      session 3 use mgmtclass A35_PR5_C
      session 4 use mgmtclass A35_PR5_D
      session 5-15 use mgmtclass A35_PR5_A

so I moved to

MAX_BACK_SESSIONS       15
BRBACKUPMGTCLASS   A35_PR5_A A35_PR5_B A35_PR5_C A35_PR5_D A35_PR5_A
A35_PR5_B A35_PR5_C A35_PR5_D A35_PR5_A A35_PR5_B A35_PR5_C A35_PR5_D
A35_PR5_A A35_PR5_B A35_PR5_C

and I thought things were corrected...
but today I'm looking at things and currently I have some 269 files in the
"A" mgmtclass, 48 in "B", 54 in "C" and 56 in "D"

anyone else ever see this oddity ???????????????????

Dwight
