Well, you're right. Server consolidation is a good thing.
But I usually (for simplicity) try to have one machine with one TSM server
doing all the work. Why do you need several different instances of TSM on
the same box? Why not just have one instance?

6. Can be implemented in a few hours

Subject: Multiple TSM* Servers On Same Machine
Hi all,
Why would one put multiple TSM servers on a single machine?
What are the advantages and disadvantages? What are the
scenarios?
History:
We have one AIX system with one TSM server with two libararies
attached.
