We are currently using TSM 3.1 server and will be for the next 2 months. We
also have installed several Windows 2000 Advanced Server machines in a
clustered environment. The backups are performing very slow(12 hours for 10G
and 415,000 total files considered). I have information that the current
client(IP21855) we are using knows nothing about Windows 2000 and
clustering. The bottleneck is definitely the speed in which the client is
reading and testing files for backup. I have tested a Windows 2000 machine
with the IP21933 client and it seemed to work OK.

Since TSM 3.1 is out of support and the last supported client for TSM 3.1
was IP21855 I have some reservations about installing IP21933 on our Windows
2000 machines.

The question....
        Does anyone know of any problems with running the IP21933 client and
TSM 3.1?
        Has anyone had any experience with this configuration?

Thanks in advance for any assistance!
