Have you checked your tape drives and the path to them? I've seen the error when the drives are unavailable or the path to them is misconfigured. Ian MacGregor ç ANS1314E (RC14) File data currently unavailable on server Am I missing something at the TSM server layer, like permissions, creation of new nodes etc? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. -Amit. -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
