Yes, the TSM Client (4.2.1.20 windows2000) has this in the dsm.opt file. I
dont believe there is an option for the storage agent to indicate LANFREE
usage though.

        Do you have ENABLELANFREE YES turned on?

        I am having some problems with the LAN Free backups. Server is
4.2.1.12
        (Windows 2000), client is 4.2.1.20, SAN client is installed and I
guess
        setup. I see the node in question connecting to the TSM Server
(under q ses
        I can see the node and its session type is server). When I launch
the client
        it does not give me a "LANFree path failed. Using LAN Path" anymore.
I have
        mapped all the drives to this server to use.

        Is there something missing?. When the backups start no tape is
loaded, it
        goes to the storage pool (unless it is over 500Megs which goes
directly to
        tape). This is also causing a problem when I try to restore to the
original
        location for this SAN attached server - File is unavailable to the
server.
        So I need to launch the client (login as this node) on another
machine and
        save the files to a different location.

        TSM server is connected to the library via fibre switch. All nodes
for LAN
        free backups are connected to this fibre switch and are able to see
all the
        drives in the TSM admin GUI. The service "TSM StorageAgent1" is
created and
        is running.

        Thanks for any help

        Joe
