Gisbert,

You don't say which TDP you are using.

My experience is a little old, but in TDP for Oracle there is an environment 
variable which tells TSM the "expected" size of the object. If this is greater 
than  the biggest file allowed in your storage pool, the backup will go 
straight to tape. Either the change the value of this variable or change the 
maximum size on your storage pool.

Hello,

when we do a backup via the TDP, the backup goes not first to the
disk storage pool, but directly to tape. We have tried it with and without
caching files on the disk pool. No success. Has someone an idea what
the problem might be?

An other problem is that, when we set caching to NO, the value for PctUtil
never becomes zero. Can we force it and how?

Thanks,
Gisbert
