Backup Exec Configuration with Tivoli Option


Backup Exec, TSM, Tivoli Storage Manager, Symantec Backup Exec 11D, Backup

I have implemented a Symmantec backup exec 11d to Tivoli Storage Manager 5.3.5 using tsm agent 5.2 on a Windows 2003 Server sp1. The option is allowing me to direct backup exec data to my TSM server and in turn expedite the restore process. I have a few questions related to sending Backup Exec Data to a robust TSM instance :

1) Can Backup exec leverage the 3 extra available multiple mount points I have configured for this tivoli node?
2) Can the tsm library in Backup Exec be altered to allow for more tape drives?
3) Can multiple TSM libraries be added to Backup Exec?
4) Overall are there any performance caveats to this particular type of setup?


Thank you in advance.
