Pete, I upgraded to 5.3.2.0, disabled the old journal service, created specific ones for each drive and installed a journal service for each, per your instructions. The services are running and there are journal dbs for each drive, but only the c: journal seems to be showing any activity, and backups of the other drives don't indicate they are using the journal.
One part I wasn't sure about was whether I needed to create custom dsm.opt files for each journal service, or if I could use multiple journalpipe stanzas. Is there a way to verify my install config, like what pipe each service is using?

The first step is to create a separate journal config file for each journal service which will be installed. Each config file should specify a different JournalPipe value, and should also specify different drives to journal so that the two services don't clash with each other. Note that attempting to have multiple journal services journal the same drive will cause problems since the different services will attempt to write to the same journal db unless this is specifically overridden in the the by specifying different journal dirs in the different config files. The next step is to install journal multiple services under different names. For example: dsmcutil install journal /name:"TSM Journal Service 1" /JBBCONFIGFILE:c:\journalconfig\tsmjbbd1.ini" dsmcutil install journal /name:"TSM Journal Service 2" /JBBCONFIGFILE:c:\journalconfig\tsmjbbd2.ini Backup clients should now be able to connect to the desired journal service by specifying the JournalPipe client option which corresponds with the JournalPipe journal service setting. Hope this helps and please post any additional questions.

What version of the client are you running ? In client versions prior to 5.32, running multiple services really required installing the two instances of the journal daemon in different directories because I didn't have the foresight to implement a mechanism for allowing each journal service to point to a different config file. In 5.32 a registry setting can added (either manually or via DSMCUTIL) to point a specific instance of a journal service to a particular config (tsmjbbd.ini) file. As you say, the key to running multiple instances of the service is to specifiy a unique pipe name for the journal service via the JournalPipe config setting, and to use the corresponding client option to point the desired journal service. Hope this helps .....
