Shannon - Yes that's also set at 5. This only appears to have happened since the install of 5.3 client. Maybe I'll rollback to 5.1.5 and see what happens.

The server has an ADMIN volume in addition to Vol1 and SYS, however we only backup Vol1 and SYS. The resourceutilization setting is interesting - I'll reset it to 4 (we used to have it at 3 - I only changed it to try and rectify this problem). Many Thanks again for your input.

If you only have sys: and vol1:, there's not that much benefit to getting multiple backup sessions anyway. A somewhat related question would be how many tape drives does your tsm server have? As a side-note, I've noticed that many of our netware servers here get flaky if you specify a resourceutilization of 4 or more. It occassionally causes locks/hangs either in the backup agent itself, or sometimes the entire server. It doesn't usually make sense to set resourceutilization > number of tape drives anyway.
