We're running ADSM/VM V2 on a 9672-R35 with RAMAC-2. One TCPIP stack
drives two ADSM servers at a peak rate of 12 GB/hour. At peak, the stack
consumes 40% of one engine while the servers total about 30%. I plan to
split the TCPIP stack, dedicating a stack to each server. If enough
bandwith was available (the current limitting factor), I believe I could
back up well over 20 GB/hour. I won't claim that this rate is sustainable
over a 24-hour period, but 200-300 GB per day would seem to be reasonably
acheivable.

IBM, imagine what we could do with ADSM/VM Version 3!

Best regards,
     Mark
