Don't trust this if you're staying on the same machine. On AIX, at least,

Before doing your AS/400 backup which I assume is going direct to a

When done. This will tell TSM not to attempt to use the device while you're

Subject: Redirect Output in Windows dsmadmc
Hi,
Look on page 39 and 40 of the TDP for Oracle for UNIX (Second Edition April
2001). It says that the TDPO_OPTFILE must be specified in the allocate
channel.
Take a look at what has to be done to the script.

Consider it noted.
Don't know if this will help, but if the Admin client is done in batch

Steve,
Ultimately, you're limited to media write speeds. For example, my LTO
drives write at 12 MB/s sustained; my 18 GB SCSI drives write at 16 MB/s
sustained.
Nothing I do to TSM will increase those numbers. They are the media's
limits. If I was doing a comparison, I would therefore see on

We currently share our tape library with an AS/400. If the AS/400 is using
a tape drive and TSM needs it, it goes to an unavailable state and the TSM

However, the TSM server only polls for a certain amount of time and then
