Thomas,
Unfortunately there is no short-cut to avoid reading the admin guide as it is 
important to have a complete understanding of the process.
Without that basic understanding it could be a real challenge to explain it to 
you.

There is a very good example in the guide that steps through the process and 
then explains how to implement it.

At that point should you have any explicit question post them here and we will 
be glad to assist you.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Tape rotation

Hello all,

        Can anyone direct me to a good document that explains how to manage 
tapes in TSM. I have backups copying from a disk pool to a tape pool but I 
don't understand how to determine which tape should go off site and which 
shouldn't. There is of course the administrator's guide but I was hoping maybe 
there was something a little more clear and straight forward before I attempt 
to read more of the guide and decipher its meaning.






Thanks
