Fellow ADSM'ers,

I started a dsmc restore of 108 files, each approx. 50MB. After
running successfully for >3hrs I received the following
message:

>>>>>> Restore Processing Interrupted!! <<<<<<
ANS4314E File data currently unavailable on server

This failure occurred at 17:37. Also, my scheduled backups and archives
started at 16:00. I have a 3494 w/two 3590 drives.
My question is this: Can scheduled backups/archives "bump"
a dsmc restore in progress? Or should they be able to
coexist? It looks like my dsmc restore had to fight the
scheduler for a 3590 resource, and lost.

Here is a portion of the actlog at the point of failure:
