generate backupset doesn't show any info on the q vol, because the tape
doesn't get put into any stgpool.
SO, with that DRM is useless, I believe.
Note files and dirs only....question registry (NT).
I had to watch the mounts to figure out what node was on what tapes....
even the backupset table doesn't look like it will help

Hi, TSMers,

We are running TSM 4.2 on AIX4.3.3 and I have 2 questions that couldn't
find answers from books.

1.  Now that I started to generate backupsets for several nodes, but I
couldn't tell which volumes belong to which node when 'q libvol'. The
server shows only 'backupset' and when 'q vol xxxxxxxx f=d', it doesn't
give any info about vol of backupset. I plan to take them to off-site,
but when it expires (30 days), how I do know which need to come back to
on-site? Any recommendation for managing volumes of backupsets?


2.  Does TSM supports to generate backupset or client image backup on
DVD-ROM? My clients wouldn't fit on 1 or 2 regular CD-ROM.

Thanks for your expertise!!
