Hi,
It seems like that your HSM is in inconsistent state.
HSM maintain its pointer inventory in .SpaceMan file

How does one go about setting up tivoli schedules for people who are not

Ideally, I would like to be able to specify when the backup occurs from

One of the reason folks consider compression is to reduce backup times on

I want to work with TSM like this way:
1-Make backup of client. It4s easy!
2-Keep the backups into the disk and after send the data to tape(one tape is

Can I do it?
How can I configure "pool" of tapes?
WOW !
be careful on the "slow down" statement...
NOT THE CASE !

I also contacted Tivoli, and got the answer (in writing) that you register
