Hi all

Using version 4.2.1.9 of TSM for AIX, I last week restored a database
backup both from a 3584 and a 3575-L32. No manual libraries here. Both the
3584 and the 3575 was configured as automated libraries, each with 3 drives
in it. It worked perfect. So, perhaps this is a problem with 3.7, but I
cannot read in the description from Kirsten what level they are running.

If they are running 3.7, perhaps this is the problem. But with version 4.1
and 4.2, there is no need to define a manual library. I have tested this in
real life, and it works.

Best Regards

Daniel, Thomas,


This issue was posted here by me in december last year, after experiencing
the problem that the database couldn't be restored using libt=349X.

I was told by the guru's in this list that this was the situation since TSM
3.7, but a APAR was being developed at the moment.
In order to do a database restore with the current releases, you need to
define a manual library.

I found it out the hard way, so i had to reinstall the TSM server code.
