If you're using TDP for R3 and one interface, it should work with passwordaccess generate. I've found that multiple interfaces to the same TSM server for the same node only gets *one* of the interfaces synced on the change. On TDP for R3 the utility is backint; run backint -f password -p and you

You could export a nodes data and then import it to different pools. You may well find that's a royal pain. How about rearranging your pools so you've got the configuration the way you want it. Then do a selective backup of those clients using the new library. Then let the old data in the othe

Kelly, Thanks for the info. You are right - with 140 clients we do not use collocation. So data is spread all over the libraries. The other problem (and I forgot to mention this) is that two of the three existing libraries will be retired completely. A third (retained) library will need the "
