Subject: Re: 1024 DB2 database connection limit on AIX

I hit this problem the first night of backups after converting to V6.2.2.0 from 
v5.5.  I don't know but I'd guess the determining factor would be number of 
nodes backing up.  We have between 400 -500 nodes backing up.  They back up 
between 3-5 TB a night.  My v6 db is about 140 GB (used).

I'm wondering if anyone on the list has run into this issue or if someone from 
IBM can clarify or give examples to quantify slightly better than "servers with 
large workloads".  How large a DB?  How many clients?  How much backed up 
nightly?  At least give something in the ballpark so TSM admins can make an 
educated decision if they need to consider this problem upfront.  Putting in a 
large server and then crossing your fingers that you don't reach the limit 
isn't really a good customer support strategy.

Thanks
