Hello,
you are hit by the "0" byte password bug...
Your encrypted password is stored in a file. If the encrypted password
contains a "0" byte than some TSM clients are not able to handle this.
This bug is fixed in the newer clients.

I agree with Don, I prefer non-protected RAID-0 stripping for TSM disk
pools. That is unless it a unique type of data that is not re-creatable
such as backup logs.

Well yes, it does matter.
Trouble is, there is no "right" answer.
It's a performance thing.
Assuming you have multiple clients backing up concurrently to your disk

the number of TSM "volumes" in your disk pool.

Hi Gerald,
I think you have to consider that if you use RAID5 logical drives, you have
to calculate and write a parity every time you write any data on the disk:
so if you have a write intensive application, RAID5 is not so efficient as
other RAID protections (1,10, etc); if you have instead read
