Last night we had an error on all our MS-SQL backups using the TSM API. The only change to the configuration was that explicit mangement class assignments were added in the optioins file for the API. The management class for the databases backed up are assigned correctly and the backups appear to all have worked. 1). These are the errors that show: ACO5436E A failure occurred on stripe number (0), rc = 1301 ANS0328E (RC45) The specified objects failed the merge test. 2).

ACO5436E A failure occurred on stripe number (stripe number), rc = return code Explanation: A failure occurred on the numbered stripe. System Action: Processing ends. User Response: There should be other messages along with this one. Refer to the other messages to determine the problem. ANS0328E The specified objects failed the merge test. Explanation: The specified objects failed the merge test, operation cannot complete. System Action: The requested operation failed. User Response: See documentation for the merge test parameters. Anyone acquainted with this?
