You need to do colocation. Colocation will place files from each client on a
tape by itself providing the client segregation you desire. You can even
break this down even further and colocate by filespace. The downside is that
you will significantly increase the amount of tapes you use. For further
information look in your TSM documentation for "UPDATE STGPOOL".

-=>Subject: TSM configuration questions
-=>
-=>I am setting up TSM in our shop and I am learning TSM
-=>as I go. Right now, I have set up a 100GB Disk Pool
-=>and one Tape Pool and one Tapecopy pool for making
-=>offsite storage copies. My questions are:
-=>
-=>If I am doing backups using this configuration, my
-=>daily backups on NT, Netware, and Unix will all first
-=>go to the disk pool and then migrate to the tape pool.
-=> Data on the tapes will consist of information from
-=>all platforms, mixing together, right? I was
-=>uncomfortable
-=>with this data mixing idea. I called TSM support and
-=>they assured me everything would be alright. However,
-=>If I still want to have tapes consisting of only one
-=>platform only, are there ways to configure the system
-=>to do that? My purpose of doing this is to have NT,
-=>Novell, and Unix System Administrators to handle their
-=>own tapes.
-=>
-=>Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
