Hopefully a simple question:
I have a select script that finds the tapes I want to be processed by
MOV DRM, is there a way to pipe the results from the select back into
that command? Here's the select:
select volume_name,state from drmedia where (volume_name in (select

I've added a second 7337 library to our ADSM system (15 DLT robot with 2
drives). I've got the system seeing the library, and I have a new
devclass defined with the new library.
What I would like to do is have two of our stgpools (AFS_TAPE_POOL and

Are you using the new ext3 filesystem type? If so, you need to add some
config for a virtual filesystem for TSM to work. I don't remember the
details, but I read it on the list here in the last few months.

I'm not an expert with ADSM, but does ADSM have any of the advanced
features that this article talked about? Can it back up a file only once
for all the computers that have a copy of it? Or will it back up
Winword.exe 5000 times for my whole organization?
We're starting to look at what it will
We started using ADSM back when it was included in IBM's campus software package
(also long before this was in my hands, so no first hand knowledge). Does anyone
know if IBM still includes TSM in the campus software package, or even where to
find out what our current licencing status is? We don't

As someone who's still runnings ADSM 3.1 but with a new TSM AIX server on order
and no choice but to run a newer version, is the general feeling that 4.1 is
stable, or is 4.1 still buggy?
This is slightly off-topic, but thought I'd ask. I've read it's possible to
write a makesysb to a file, like on a NFS server.
My question is is it possible to restore from a makesysb if the makesysb is on a
NFS server? Can you boot from a CD, mount an NFS volume, and restore from the
makesysb

I'm specing out a new server, and I'm wondering about disk pools. How do you

This server is for a new project to back up distributed clients all around

I'm still fairly new to ADSM, so bear with me here : )
I'm using ADSM 3.1 server
I want to create a macro which does a 'q volume', but only on the volumes in the
library currently (the ones listed with 'q libv').
Is there an easy way to do this?

I'm new to adsm, and I'm getting ready to set up a new server. We have received
a 96 tape robot library, and I need to order the server to drive it.
The server and library will be used for backing up unix workstations for staff
and faculty. I plan to use both backup and archiving on the server.
