TSM Version 5.5.2 on Windows I have set up two active data pools (one physical-LTO4 and one virtual-LTO2) for a group of nodes. When a restore is requested by the client, the active data on the physical tape is usually mounted. Since I have set up collocation of the virtual tape by node and I have more virtual drives than physical, I would prefer that the restore call for the virtual volumes.
Is there any way short of marking the physical tape "unavailable" to force to restore to come from a particular pool or to skew the choices TSM makes to favor the more granularly collocated media?
