Joy,
Not an AIX person, but this sort of behaviour is commonly seen on Novell clients
when there
are very large numbers of files in a directory.
Could that be the case here.
Do you have performance issues opening files with other programs in  /usr/

Subject:  Archive problems



Does anyone have any information as to why /usr/ on an AIX 4.3.3- 4.1.4 TSM=
 server,  using TSM 4.1.3 client would take 52 hours to archive?  It was al=
most like it was hung but then a few kbs would change every 30 min or so.  =
All the other system files /var, /etc/, /home took a few minutes.
