Hallo everyvbody outthere.

I got a big problem: until yesterday, our backups went fine and without any
problems. but tonight, they ran around 16 hours per server ( normally betwenn 20
minutes and 4 hours, dependend on the server.)   we have server 3.1.2.50 on
OS/390 V2.5,
Clients are OS/2, NT and AIX ( all V 3.1.2.50 ).

Can anybody imagine, why the backup needs a so long time? Could it be, that we
need a IPL every week? normally we do this, but this week we didn't, so
adsm-server runs for 14 days without stopping/restarting.

Is it a problem, when expiration, reclamation and backup are running the same
time?

Please help me, my boss will kill me when i can't solve the problem.

as a first step i will stop/restart the server now.


Please answer soon.



Greetings and thanks a lot
