Hello Steve,

I'm not sure it's a problem with the admpipe code or the api.
We have a home made application using the adsm api and we have
multiple simultaneous sessions without any problem.

How did you configure the storage pool on the ADSM server ? if you need
to support simultaneous sessions you must define it with collocate=no !

Look if u are running with collocation enabled .. and change it to see
if it's better (update stg your_stg_name collocate=no); you can do that
anytime and changes are immediate.

Hope it'll work, Michel
