Hi Lawrence,

    This may sound basic, but have you checked to make sure that the other
drives are online from a Tivoli perspective?  If you issue the "q drive"
command, tivoli will show you the drive statuses.

Hi:
Sessions and processes seem to be sinlge threading using a single drive
in a 4 drive library.
the dev is set to mountlimit=drive.
anyone know what else might cause this bottleneck?

As shown below, library with 4 drives only shows a mount waiting on a
volume when another is dismounting.

tsm: BACKUP>q mount

(/dev/rmt4),
