Jesse,

*       How many clients are you running during the backup windows while
this SQL backup is running?
*       Your diskpool may have filled up before it had a chance to migrate
to the tapepool while SQL running.
*       Your tapepool maxscratch may need to be reset.


Your humble servant,

Subject: Server out of data storage space

Hi all,
Please help.  When I run backup for our SQL Server I got a message "server
out of data storage space".  My diskpool has 14 - 2GB volumes.  The *.BAK
I'm trying to backup is 7GB is size.  There's enough total space in the
diskpool to backup this file but, I still get the message that the server is
out of data storage space.  What is actually happening here?  Is the problem
because TSM won't split a file between volumes?  I don't know.  I have 4.2
client on a WinNT 4.0 and TSM Server 4.1 running on AIX 4.3.3.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
