Thanks...they do have a 5.5.1 Netware client.. I am going to look to see
if  Journalling is supported and if so how would it be set up.

Regards
Tim

Sorry, but you are "technically" wrong.  NSS is a 64bit Journaling file
system.

See here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novell_Storage_Services

The Journalling question at hand, however, is not the file system based
Journaling, as in ext3, or JFS2, or ReiserFS, but TSM client's
Journaling services.  Which has nothing to do with the file system's
abilities.

I have never had the need to use JBB on NetWare, but I've done some
searches on Google and found some references.  However, the real
question is, do they have a NetWare client that is 5.4 or newer?  As
that would be where it's supported.

To be technically correct, NetWare does not support filesystem
journaling--therefore TSM does not, either.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Several simultaneous backups of an AIX client

Hello everyone,

I have a situation with an AIX TSM client which is at the 5.5.0.6


release


on a TSM server which is on AIX and is at 5.5.1.1.  The client has


18


million files to inspect when doing a daily incremental backup that


begins


at 9PM and as you can see below took almost 11 hours.  As you can


guess


this just isn't acceptable to run for this long period of time.


Does


anyone have any suggestions on what could be done in order to get


this


server backed up incrementally in a quicker fashion?  Any


suggestions


are


greatly appreciated!
