Jacque, to eliminate the network as a bottleneck try ftp'ing a file
between the TSM server and the client. If the FTP is also slow, then you
have a network problem and not a TSM problem.

Subject: Slow backups

I am seeing very slow backups (320k/sec) from my clients.

I am using AIX 5.1 with TSM 4.2 and Linux client 4.2.

I have a 100meg connection to my clients.

I am using the recommended settings as called out in the
performance tuning guide.

Can someone point me to some information that I can use to
better tune this performance?

Jacque
