It's very difficult to guide you on backup performance without knowing the
configuration of servers used or operating system.

Regarding the message of database changes, it is not related to your backup
time as its means that you need to take a TSM database backup.

Subject: Backup time taking too high ... how to solve

Hi All,

To day the backup time for 180 GB is taking more time for us.
Normally it will take around 2hrs 15 mnts.

If i see in q actlog, one attention message is appearing like
=======
more than 1mb of database changes ....
use backup db to provide for database recovery ...
=========

The above message is coming in the log.

Also, the q session output is showing
bytes sent as 149k and bytes received as 68k

Please guide me in this matter immediately, as some more schedules
are getting delayed.

Regards
G V Raju
