Geoff, Which specific process are you referring to? I'm assuming you arent talking about backup stg, which has had a multi-process option forever.

Sent: Wednesday, April 26, 2006 11:24 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] multiple tape processes for offsite volumes One of the issues I have had with TSM is the inability for it to run multiple processes from a single disk storage pool to a pool designated to go offsite. With 5.3 out I was wondering if that has changed, haven't seen anything yet to think not but maybe I missed it, or if we're still stuck with this. Sending 1.5TB of data offsite each day, when it was smaller was fine, using a single thread now doesn't work well. If it is the case does anyone know if IBM has plans to implement that anytime soon?
