Hi *SMers, TSM 5.2.1 server W2K sp4 3583 L72
I can't get my head around why this is happening... A number of SQL clients back up to the SQL_TAPEPOOL, with collocation turned off. However, we are only storing 68 MB from all the sql clients so I would expect all that data to fit on one tape, which it does. But for some reason TSM wants to pick up two scratch volumes everyday to backup the SQL diskpool to - not the already defined volume. Eachmorning I find myself performing a 'move data' on the two newly defined vols just to move the data back to the slowly accumilating volume. One thing that occured to me was that the volume had about 37% reclaimable space - and if the files which had expired were at the end of the volume, would TSM be able to locate the correct position to start writing from? That's the only reason I can think why this is happening. Can any one else shine a bit of light on this problem?
