JR,
Another method of determining if lan-free is working is to perform a
"query mount" on the lan-free client. You can do this from the TSM
server console using server to server communications to the client:
"storageagentname: q mount"
The data being restored must be accessable from the storage agent.
It may be that after backup, the data was migrated to devices not
accessable to the storage agent.

Currently we are using RMAN with TSM TDPO and LAN-Free clients to backup
our Oracle 10G database. This has been confirmed by looking through the
logs, monitoring network/SAN traffic and running TSM commands from the
client/server.
When we do a restore using the same configuration that was used for the
LAN-Free backup, the data for the restore goes over the network instead
of the SAN.
I have looked through the logs and have been unable to find any messages
stating that LAN-Free couldn't be used.
Aside from updating the LAN-Free node DATAREADPATH and DATAWRITEPATH
attributes to LANFree (currently it is set to Any), has anyone else seen
this issue before?
