I saw this exact problem when I defined a managment class with a backup
copygroup that went straight to tape whereas the other copygroups(and the
default) went to disk. The interesting problem was that this node did not
have any include lines for this other management class. The client was
dsmcdfs at level 3.1.0.8 on AIX 4.2. dsmc on the same machine did not have
this problem, only dsmcdfs. Tivoli told me that the client was not
supported at the server version I was using(5.1.6.3 on AIX 4.3.3). I found
a similar problem with TSM 5.1.5.13 on Mac OSX 10.2.x. I wouldn't get
that error message that you showed, but the client would try to send to
both disk and tape. I may open a problem on it, when I have time...
