Yea, it is. I should have said: client=6.2.5 server=7.1.5
I upgraded the client to v7.1.6 and the problem went away. I'll look into the apars ya'll have mentioned.

Envoyé : 13 janvier 2017 09:17 À : ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Objet : [ADSM-L] client restore got ANS4035W - files unavailable Hi, Last night a DBA tried to do a restore of some files. He get returned 01/12/17 22:01:07 ANS4035W File 'xxxxxxx' currently unavailable on server. The client data is on tape. The tape drives and library are handled by a separate dedicated library manager instance. I see: on tsm server the client restore session the sessions to the library mgr instance (I think) on lib mgr the session which I believe would be for the mount (I think) on tsm server ANS4025 errors for all files for the restore Nowhere is there any indication of WHY the files are unavailable. Nowhere is there any indication of what volume(s) were trying to be used. I checked: there were tape drives free in the library all tape volumes are read/write or read-only no tape errors or hdwr errors Q) Any thoughts on why the files would be unavailable? Q) How can you tell specific volumes are needed for a client restore? The only thing I can think of is that the volumes are unavailable, but I can't figure out what volumes it wanted to use.
