Hi Everybody,

We are investigating ways of improving the way our servers can be restored at a 
DR test. For AIX/Linux servers once the server's OS has been restored, how has 
everyone's experience been at restoring application filesystems on UNIX based 
systems ? For instance, let's say you have 20 servers having data ( aside from 
the OS ) of between 100 and 150Gb. What is the best way to restore the data ? 
We have caching turned on the storage pools so some of the data is restore from 
our storage pools, but the majority of data is on tape and that tapes seem to 
be the bottleneck. We tried using collocation on two servers, but by using 
collocation and when multiple restores were launched on different filesystems, 
TSM treats them as a classic restore and the restore becomes single-threaded.
