Hi All,

After some internal TSM reorg I need to rebind some images to another
management class, and after setting these in the options file

   INCLUDE.IMAGE F: KVAULT imagetype=snapshot
   INCLUDE.IMAGE G: KVAULT imagetype=snapshot
   INCLUDE.IMAGE H: KVAULT imagetype=snapshot
   INCLUDE.IMAGE I: KVAULT imagetype=snapshot
   INCLUDE.IMAGE J: KVAULT imagetype=snapshot
   INCLUDE.IMAGE K: KVAULT imagetype=snapshot

To force the g drive below:

   Image Size Stored Size FSType     Backup Date     Mgmt Class A/I
Image Name
   ---------- ----------- ------ ------------------- ---------- ---
----------
 1  279.38 GB   193.67 GB  NTFS  04/05/2006 00:39:16 KVAULT      A
\\zsts127001\f$
 2  351.56 GB   334.44 GB  NTFS  09/30/2005 18:41:04 DEFAULT     A
\\zsts127001\g$  <---
 3  449.21 GB   432.99 GB  NTFS  09/30/2005 22:39:07 DEFAULT     A
\\zsts127001\h$
 4  500.00 GB   461.00 GB  NTFS  12/05/2005 23:41:29 <Unknown>   A
\\zsts127001\i$
 5  363.49 GB   350.76 GB  NTFS  03/08/2006 00:42:02 <Unknown>   A
\\zsts127001\j$
 6  664.27 GB   194.27 GB  NTFS  04/05/2006 00:39:33 KVAULT      A
\\zsts127001\k$

To rebind to the KVAULT mgmtclass, I had expected a manual backup of the
drive to force a rebind, but having examined the output above after the
operation I discover nothing has changed. I'm sure I asked the machine
owner to restart the services, but I would have thought the manual
backup process rereads the options file anyway before processing any
files.

Any normal file rebind would have worked this way I'm sure of it. 

Can anyone see what's gone wrong, or (in the words of BBC2 star Terry
Wogan) is it me?

Many Thanks,
Matthew
