How many actual volumes are in db_dpool?...never mind, although that is a
consideration...
Check your disk pool: db_dpool and its setup....!
See that this pool will migrate to DB_TPOOL AND that there's a migration in
process and you are wanting
to do a backup stgpool from db_dpool to dr_pr1db1??
so for migrations you are going to one pool......and for backup storage pool you
want to go do another??
good methodology??
Usually (I believe) one wants to clear disk daily....and to backup storage pools
from tape to tape...
not too sure about the why, but I wouldn't subscribe to this methodology...
FYI Thanks Tim

          Next Storage Pool: DB_TPOOL
          Migration in Progress?: Yes

             Command: ba stg db_dpool dr_pr1db1 maxpr=3

Subject:  backup copy pools

I am trying to backup my disk pool to a tape pool.  I need to run multiple
session to get a decent backup time but I can't seem to get it to run
multiple sessions.  Any advice?
