Christian, there is no problem to run two TSM servers on one machine. You can have on both machines installed two TSM servers (one active and second inactive but ready to use in case of fail). Then, when one of them fail, you can restore its database (from latest backup) on second machine and run both servers simultaneously. Or you can backup TSM database on each other via server-to-server configuration. Another question is if you need to automate this proces. Probably the best solution would be to use cluster (if it is possible, as I do not know your platform, servers location and so on).
Hope this helps Ing. Jozef Zatko Login a.s.

Hi at all ... I have a technical question and I try to explain in good form. If I have a 2 servers with TSM, for example TSM1 and TSM2. The server TSM1 make a backups a one group of server "GROUP1" and TSM2 make a backups a other group "GROUP2". My cuestion is: In case of fail the TSM1 is posible perform a backup a GROUP1 with the other server of tsm "TSM2" with the same tsm database of TSM1. Is possible to have a two databases in one tsm server and active or inactive each one in different times ? If not possible the are any altenative or make this in other way. Thank you very much for theirs help !!! Best Regards Christian Astuni
