Mark,
    You might want to investigate if the "generate backupset" TSM server
command would be a sutable alternative to synthetically generate a point
in time image of a client from the backup data that has already been
transmitted across the WAN.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Archives across Wan Best practices

Hi All, just wanted to be pointed in the right direction to find
information on best practices on Archives across the T1 WAN? We are
having trouble finishing monthly archives on weekends running normal
Archives. I have tried to talk with upper management about getting rid
of Archives, but no go. We are running TSM 5.3.4 with older versions of
clients up to 5.3.4. Please advise Thanks
