We're just installing ADSM, so I have a hundred questions.  I'll start
(hopefully) simply.  :-)

(1) How can you use the 3490 autoloader?

(2) The devclass has the amount of time the ADSM server will wait for a
    drive/cartridge to be mounted.  But the message annoys the operator
    once a minute.  Is this minute adjustable somehow?

(3) Introductory "Administrator's Guide" info would be easier to
    understand if it was more clear that storage pools and device
    classes are independent of domains, policies etc (one storage class
    can serve more than one policy domain).

(4) The "keep only n backups" of a file doesn't seem to fit with "point
    in time" restores of filespaces or directories.  How might I ensure
    that I can restore a directory as it existed a week, month, or year
    ago without keeping 7, 31, or 365 as the number of backup copies?
    Even if I do this, can I restore a directory to a "point in time"?

(5) The SES/E COR tape that came with the product has a component name
    that ends with an "S", whereas the initial install component name
    does not.  Is it obvious what dumb thing I'm doing while trying to
    load the service?

Thanks for any info you might provide,
