Run them as multiple TSM instances in a single AIX image. Works fine under TSM 5.5, but it's even easier in TSM 6 than in previous versions, and it's lower overhead, easier management, etc. as long as you get your naming conventions right to keep them separate. Set it up with a Library Manager and

Thanks Guys My AIX Guru said that WPARs are more trouble than they are worth and there are complexities as each instance is on a different subnet, but the WPARs must all be on the same subnet. Thus we have shelved that idea for now. Regards Steve. On 25/01/2012 9:13 PM, Steven Langdale wrote:
