Tomas,
You have two options.
The one which is easiest is to start using the web access part of the ADSM
which will then allow you a graphical interface of sorts, and which is a
million times easier to work then the command line.
The second option is of course the command line, and then you have

We get exactly the same issue showing when ours gets backed up, even tho we

We put it down to a quirk in ADSM.
By the way, we do NOT trust the ADSM NDS backups as a restore-able backup.

Steve,Hi!
Can't a 3494 have two distinct scratch pools defined for a system.
Right now I have x'0190' and x'0192' where x'0190' is 'owned-inuse'
and x'0192' is 'owned-scratch' and '' is insert, etc.
So why not an x'0193' for 'owned-scratch-alternate'?

ADSM considerations aside, from a hardware view in this environment SCSI is
definitely the way to go. Not only is SCSI superior handling multiple
simultaneous accesses, it is much less CPU intensive. When a SCSI drive is
accessing, it normally uses 10-20% of the CPU, where IDE can use between

Backing up active databases using simple incremental backup, from outside
the database, is problematic because part of the database is on disk and
part is in memory, and perhaps elsewhere. As a general rule, it's advisabl
