Thank you for your response, We turn off the viruscan services before backup and turn them back on afterwards. So, this can't be the problem, I think.

We are now backuping up 1 unix server and 12 Windows clients (Windows 2000 Server, SP2). We are using TSM Server 4.2.1.9 on a Unix server (S7A) and use TSM Client 4.2.1.20 on all the windows clients. We use a 3583 Ultrium Tape Lib, with 2 drives. Problem 1 : Unfortunately we have problems with the TSM Client on 3 of our Windows machines, - 1 machine fails to start the TSM Scheduler service during boottime, if we start it manually, it runs, but crashes several times during backup. (we do an "autorestart", if the service fails) - the other 2 machines always start the backup, but the client (tsm scheduler) crashes after a certain time, are amount of files. There is not really a fixed point where the service crashes. If backup is launched from the scheduler, dsmsvc.exe crashes, if we start the backup manually with dsmc incr, dmsc.exe crashes. Does anybody know what the fastest way is to solve this ? Problem 2 : - During migration from disk to tape, I can see (on the display) that the 2 tapedrives are not constantly writing data to tape, it's always writing for a short period of time, waiting for a longer period, writing, and so on ... Is this normal ? Is there anything I can check or do ? Shouldn't the tapestreamers really stream data from disk ? I know our situation is not ideal (the whole diskpool is on 1 disk), but it is on another scsi-bus than the tapestreamers. Thank you very much in advance (sorry for all my questions, but this is just my second TSM installation), Wouter Verschaeve, Unix System Engineer.
