Charles, from what I remember, the main restriction always has been the number of parallel streams you've used to create the backup. If you had two streams you won't get them back in 3 streams. When backing up TDP-Ora directly to your tape library, you get the streams put onto different tapes. Backing up to a diskpool, I'd expect TSM to use different volumes, too, if possible. So the question is what happens during migration, space reclamation...

Our Oracle DBA's want to do multi stream restores using TDP for Oracle. I have read in other posts using TDP for SQl all you have to do is set the dest stgpool to Collocate by filespace. Ok, sounds easy but I don't think that would work for the Oracle DB Backups. I say this as in the TDPO.opt you specify "TDPO_FS ora_db" so this tells me there is only one file system for that DB Backup, so collocate by filespace is pointless if there's only one right? The only other way I can think of doing this is each ORA DB would (assuming more than on DB per system) is each Oracle Instance would have to have its own tdpo.opt with a different tdpo_fs specified. Any ideas? Charles Hart
