For a single file that is OK, But if you are attempting to restore more
than 21 files it won't work (At I was uunable to change that in ADSM 1.0
for OS/2 and in TSM3.7 for NT)

Chris - The painful way, depending upon your file population, is to do
        the old Select on the Contents table, to get the volume_name
for a given file_name.
    The dirty trick way is to mark your backup storage pool Unavailable
for a moment, attempt a restoral, unmark, and look in the Server Activity
Log for what volume it could not get.
