Hi Edwin, If you launch the GUI as the same AD account used to run the backup it should be straight forward. Just be careful as it is easy to overwrite live data. Can you confirm SQL and TDP code levels and how far you got? ------------------------------ Ivor-John Ross Service Desk Analyst Tectrade ...

Hi Arthur, Any errors from the act log? (q ac begind=-1 endd=today se=migrate') We see the same on a TSM server migrating from a file based dedupe pool to tape.

For Windows boxes this works: tasklist /s Give you this result: tsmjbbd.exe 2408 Console 0 17,352 K and can be run from the TSM server (domain credential dependant) I presume the same would apply for Unix, but I have nto queried that remotely yet

Hi Prem, Did you activate your new policy? Try this select domain_name,destination from bu_copygroups Then you can see where each domain writes. If spacemgpool is not used; remove it.
