Re: Using Backupsets for Disaster Recovery

John,
To answer your questions.:
Yes, MPThreading is turned on.
Yes, it is getting plenty of processor. Region is set at 512M. I have
sent to IBM dumps that were taken during the "hung" periods. What I have
been told, is that there is a large number of locks being generated during
that period, and that everything is working as designed. I can see why
there are a large number of locks. The backupset that causes this has 1.6+
million objects (and growing daily). I have also been told that soon there
will be another client node the same size (200+gb).
The biggest hurdle for me to overcome is the reliance on these backupsets
for DR purposes. As far as I can tell, they were not originally designed
for DR purposes. If they were, I believe they would be managed under DRM.

My situation is very different from many TSM sites. I have no tape drives
in my servers so I have no way to create backupsets that can be read by the
client because 3590 is not supported based on what I know. And, anyway, it
would not be feasible. Sorry, I did not fully explain why they are too
cumbersome for my environment. When you have as many servers as I do and
they all have hundreds of gigabytes it is just not feasible.
Different strokes for different folks. That is the beauty of TSM.
