Hi Jim,
O thx Jim for your input, it really helped me.
Now do you know if I can merge the 3 FileSpaces?

Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Multiple FileSpaces on Cluster
Hi Louw
It's not actually a Netware disk that moves between Netware clustered
servers, it's a Netware Partition which can contain multiple disks. Just
to confuse you, the TSM manual that describes how to set up Netware
Cluster aware backups talks about a "cluster group" when they really
mean a Netware Partition.
The key to getting this to work successfully seems to be to allocate a
dsm.opt file on a disk in that partition, and define the partition to
TSM as a uniquely named node, that is, do not use the same node name as
any of the physical clustered servers. We do this for a couple of
clustered disks and all seems to work fine.
If you can provide details of how your dsm.opt file is set up I might be
able to help more, but one problem is that our standards are that every
clustered disk lives in its own Netware partition, and I can't remember
how much of our documentation is disk specific and how much is partition
specific. (Understanding the TSM manual was heavy going)
