Eurodis,
        I want to answer this question to see if we can both get more insight 
from
others.  I have been running TSM on NT for a few years now and I have seen
that all of my disk pool volumes fill evenly not one at a time.  I have seen
this, I believe, even when only one node is backing up.

        Now I have heard other things.  I heard someone on AIX saw that one node
would write to one volume and then the next node would write to a new volume
but one node wouldn't split its data between two until it fills one.  Now
I'm not saying this is true its just what I heard.

        I also heard that in some platforms it just fills one volume and then 
goes
onto the next.  Maybe Richard or one of the IBM engineers could shed a
little light on this?

Kyle
