Several comments:

- the initial full will run a long time
- turn on client compression
- implement QOS (quality of service) on the routers to limit tsm traffic

I don't know much about this last item, but our network folks just made
changes
to our routers to limit tsm traffic to no more than 80% of the bandwidth.

Fellow TSM administrators:

My company is currently looking at backing up approximately 40 NT servers
at our remote locations, back to our local data center.  Each location has
around 10gb -  40gb of storage, and very minimal daily change activity on
the files.  Some of the locations are 256k data lines, and some are t1
lines.

Does anyone have a list of best practices?  What are some of the options
that you have found to improve the process of remote backups via TSM to a
central location.  Any help and input that you can provide is much
appreciated.
