Since there has been so much discussion on this, I'll add my 2 cents. Here

First let me say, I don't want to spread out the discussion to non *SM

following may be from interest anyway.

Hi ADSMer's
I need to get off my DLT IV library soon.
Can anybody recommend a IBM or 3rd party vendor that will work with
ADSM 3.2.40 and eventually TSM3.7.1?
I think I will need a library that holds at least 40 DLT IV tapes as I will
have to reuse the ones I have.
Thanks,

I'm certainly interested in what you wind up with. At lot of
your answers are going to depend on how much data you're backing
up for how many clients in what time window, and what your
restore requirements are.

Well, they have an Archived Date, and in the management class to which they

You can query the archive files from the client, or in the s

The adsm scheduler on ACTIVE Node is down. If your system is Unix/AIX
using ps -ef | grep dsm to see whether you have any processe like

I (might) have a problem with an Exabyte EXB-220 tape library connected
to an RS/6000 running AIX 4.3.3 and TSM 3.7.
I've had no problem attaching the library, after the machine has booted,
the Mammoth drives show up in device configuration:

Besides homegrown solutions there are two commercial products available
AFAIK:
- sysback from IBM (http://sysback.services.ibm.com)
- BMR from TKG (http://www.tkg.com)
