Re: Volume sequence
Norita, It sounds like your management is attempting to impose a standard derived for a less sophisticated product onto TSM. What they want, as I read it, is an assurance that they know what is on any given tape, in case of a disaster recovery - if that is the case, then they need an offsite database backup, and a recovery plan file: nothing else will do. That way they know which offsite tape has the latest database backup and can perform a restore if need be. Ask them for the result that they wish to achieve, not the means to provide it. I realize that as a technician it is often difficult to resist the unreasonable and unthinking demands of management, but you are the one who is charged with running this, not them. Be firm.

How do I know which tape is the first one, and which is next . There is no sequence numbering of filespace volumes: there doesn't need to be, as restorals may be for individual files or directories which may be on various tapes. TSM catalogs the location of aggregates of files on their containing tapes: it knows where to get files when it needs them. For your purposes, once you know the volumes associated with a node (volumeusage info) then you can simply sort by Last Write Date. But, again, such sequencing is artificial and of no real value.
