I have a user that has been testing out a TSM restore of a fileserver in
case of a disaster, and he's been getting reports that out of the
471,871 files that were selected to be restored only 463,133 files were
actually restored.  The remaining 8,738 files are being skipped.
According to the dsmerror.log report, it is saying the the files already
exist on the target server and were skipped for that reason.  Now how is
this possible if the user is restoring the files to an alternate
location (other than the original server) which is an empty drive?  
 
TSM Server 5.3.3.1
TSM Client 5.3.4.0
