I **think** what might be happening if that since the 2nd node was already collocated and has data on tape, the backup stg pool is trying to fill the existing tape with that node's data.

I created the collocation group and added a new node to to it which has been backed up in TSM before but not using collocation. The first backup as a collocated group menmber was a "Full" incremental . I checked my collocation disk pool and the data was in there .Then I added another node to the group which had been backed up to TSM and was collocated by node. I added it to the group, ran another "full" incremental, checked if the data as in the collocation pool and then ran a backup stgpool to created my offsite tape. When I check the contents of the tape, only the first node's data is on it. Did I miss something ? I checked the definition of my collocgroup and both nodes are present and accounted. Rich
