Hello,

After you install TSM server you will get a Management Console where you can 
install and configure your n+ instances.
c$\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Tivoli Storage 
Manager\Management Console.lnk"

No, you can still share the lib. and drives. Same procedure for IBM3584, SL500, 
STK9710 etc.

I assume you use LTO drives, see v.6201 install_README.txt
install_exclusive.exe:
        install_exclusive.exe should be used by applications (such as Tivoli 
Storage Manager)
        requiring the driver to issue automatic reserves on open and also 
preventing multiple
        open handles from a host to a drive to exist at the same time.
        Note: This option replaces the previous default installation of 
install.exe

install_nonexclusive.exe:
        install_nonexclusive.exe should be used by applications (such as 
Microsoft Data
        Protection Manager or Microsoft Removable Storage Manager) permitting 
multiple open 
        handles from a host to a drive to exist at the same time.

install_exclusive.exe has nothing to do with TSM library sharing.

Thanks
Henrik

Hello Henrik,

thank you for the responce.
I can't try it now.
I am thinking, whether I can share the same tape-drives on the same windows 
system.

I found the sentences (
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v1r1/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.itsmfdt.doc/b_install_guide_windows24.htm
) :
"A typical Tivoli Storage Manager installation involves one server instance in 
the Tivoli Storage Manager server machine. You might want to install a second 
instance. You might also want to run more than one server on a large machine if 
you have multiple tape libraries or a disk-only configuration."

For the IBM Tape drive I use "install_exclusive.exe". Does it mean "No drive 
sharing" ?
You use a STK Library. Is this different from IBM libraries for library- and 
drive-sharing with windows ?

With best regards
Andreas.

Hi,

Yes it is possible. Use the TSM concole wizard to create a second instance and 
follow the steps below. Modify them to fit your settings.

To share a STK9710 library between two TSM instances on the same TSM

hello,

is it possible, to run two tsm server instances on the same windows system 
using the same library?
Are there any special hints for configure the tsm server and the library 
sharing?

tsm server version 5.5.3.0

with best regards
andreas
