Hello,

Since most IT departments like the word centralize I wonder how other achieve a 
centralized TSM enviroment.

We have smaller sites with 10-40 servers connected to main office with 
20-155Mbit. One way to setup backup and recovery is to attach all servers to a 
networked storage system. Clone/snapshot the data for a local recovery.
TSM handles (historical) backups and archives which are send to the main office 
over WAN. We can do recovery at the main office for a destroyed office.

The tricky thing here is to get all the data over WAN. TSM doesn´t QoS tag the 
pacakges and TSM is happy to use all available bandwith and all other resources 
it can lay it hands on.

Am I forced to use Manual Hacks in my routers to automaticly prioritize TSM 
traffic. Or are there any other way to prioritize the traffic?


Thanks
Henrik
