As has been mentioned - compression can and does add a lot of overhead to a
NetWare server. NetWare 4.x will store data on it's volumes in a compressed
format, and the data is uncompressed when a user needs to see it. Thus
without special handling, NetWare will uncompress a file, hand it to ADSM,
and then ADSM will compress it again. Not a good idea!
I BELIEVE there was a way that you could tell NetWare that the data is to be
presented to the requester still compressed. If ADSM was then set up to not
attempt compression you should have the best of all worlds - compressed data
being processed and transmited without having any additional overhead on the
server, and of course minimal impact on the network.
Can a NetWare 4.x guru out there confirm my theory, and tell us what needs to
be done to NetWare to get it to do this for us?

Hi there,
We started to backup our Pentium 100MHz with 192MB memory Netware 4.11
server to ADSM last night at 8:00 P.M. The estimated data on the server is
about 40GB and so far only 15GB of data has been backed up in 19 hours.
The ADSM server is at version 2.1.0.12 and is running on an AIX 3.2.5
machine.
Any suggestion as to what parameters need to be fixed on either the server
or netware's dsm.opt file?
Thanks for any suggestion and comments,
Naveed.
