Hi All,

We have a following TSM server configuration:

AIX 4.3.3 ML9
Atape   7.1.5.0
tivoli.tsm.devices.aix43.rte              4.2.2.10
tivoli.tsm.server.rte                          4.2.2.10
IBM 3583 LTO library with 2 drives  (Drive firmware: 25D4)

Nodes maxnummp option value: 2
Device class mount limit: drives
Library drives are in online.

When both drive are used in library LIB03  (state: idle, in use or
dismounting), in this time, other client try to access any drive, we get a
following error messages:

08/28/02   23:58:25  ANR0406I Session 33633 started for node RMAN_NODE (TDP
                      Oracle AIX) (Tcp/Ip 1.1.2.3(33538)).

Any ideas?

Sorry for my poor English!
