Hi, This is what we are going to do later. We are anyway moving over from 1 TSM Server to 2 TSM Servers and use the old TSM Server as Library Manager and then can we keep the old TSM Server only for CommonStore. Best Regards Christian Svensson Cell: +46-70-325 1577 E-mail: christian.svens...@cr

Not entirely true. The product doesn't provide a DOCUMENTED way to do this. There are some undocumented parameters for the DELETE VOLHIST command. Specifically, you can add "vol=VOLNAME force=yes" to the command to remove the volume forcibly from the volhistory. We have found this command necessa

As a workaround, you could create a management class/copy group that specifies FREQUENCY 7, just for those files. That would prevent them from being backed up more than once a week. Reduce the pain a little. On Thu, Jan 8, 2009 at 6:09 AM, Remco Post wrote: > On 8 jan 2009, at 11:34, Stephan
