I believe that the OC will want to create a named account (default name) on each TSM server it monitors (it's ok to say TSM, I'm not IBM). This password would need to be the same across all the TSM s

Smarter way of formatting? Either it fills the files with zero's or with a certain text string like in 5.5, formatting takes time. Allocating a 100 Gb files currently takes a few seconds, so it's imp
