Hi Bill

1. Separating it into multiple TSM nodes, for example one node per 
filespace

2. Using the virtual mount point option

Both theese options should decrease the time TSM spends on inspecting the 
filespaces.

Backup of large server (15+ Million objects)






Windows 2000 server with TSM client 5.3.0.8.
TSM server 5.2.2.0 on Windows2000

Configured the journal service with a larger notify buffer, but we just 
can't get the first incremental to complete.  We see in the server 
activity log that the session was terminated by the client. Running in 
managed services mode.

Any suggestions on backup strategies on this large of a server?
