Is the directory information you referring about related to Windows systems? You should use the DIRMC client option to store all your directory information in a DISK based storage pool (DISK or FILE), so that it remains on faster quicker access media for restore purposes. (Dont let that stuff go to tape for the reasons you have outlined below.) The DIRMC client option is not really required for Unix based systems, as the database has enough space to store that information. ...deon --- Have you looked at the A/NZ Tivoli User Group website? http://www.tuganz.org Deon George, IBM Tivoli Software Engineer, IBM Australia Office: +61 3 9626 6058, Fax: +61 3 9626 6622, Mobile: +61 412 366 816, IVPN +70 66058 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.ibm.com/tivoli
