>TSM Server is 5.1.6.4 on AIX 4.3.3.10.
TSM Client code is 5.1.5.9
I have a Windows 2000 SP4 Server and have configured TSM 5.1  for several 
cluster nodes.  I have one node that will not recognize one of the physical 
drives that is configured within that group.  I have edited the opt file, 
reconfigured TSM on the local machine, removed and reinstalled the services for 
the cluster node, and removed and recreated the node itself...I have rights to 
the drive and don't have an issue accessing the drive. Has anyone had a similar 
issue or have a resolution for this problem?<

Open the command-line client for the node in question. Run Q INCLEXCL. Is the 
suspect drive listed as excluded?

Is the drive a quorum drive, or a local drive? If it is a local drive, is that 
local drive defined for the Windows node (and TSM node) in question?

Did you closely follow the instructions for setting up the TSM client's 
cluster-aware services? Is the problem present when you run a local backup, or 
does it only exist for scheduled backups?
