Did you activate the policyset?

I recently struggled with this problem too. Setting up and
configuring TSM/VE is confusing. I've included the output from my
domain, policysets, mgmtclass and copy groups. I hope it will help
you figure out what is missing.

I've created a management class and added it to the dsm.opt file.

However, when I run the backups I get this error:

specified for the 'VMCTLMC' option is invalid, or does not have a

I know the management class is valid and and when I query the copy
group it is STANDARD.  Now, the documentation says that it must be
STANDARD but this doesn't make much sense to me.

Thanks,
Eric

Each backup session backs up some control information, and that
information is restored for use during the next backup.  (You can
see the restores happening if you watch the server during the
backup, or if you look in the accounting info.)

I'm just guessing, but I suspect  that the "data unavailable on
server" is because it can't restore that control info.
Perhaps some volumes in your disk pool are offline, or the control
information has migrated off to tape?

If the latter, you need to put these keywords in the dsm.opt on your
datamover:

VMMC    your-mgmt-class-for-data-goes-here
VMCTLMC         your-mgmt-class-for-control-info-goes-here

The control info mgmt. class should point to a small disk pool that
can't migrate to tape.

I'm trying to back up some VM's using DP for VM 7.1.1.0 and am
getting an error on some of the VM's and the backup is
failing.  I've asked Uncle Google and can't find much.  I would
contact IBM support but I get very little help from them as well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
