Hi let me explain my problem and see if any of you mainframe 390 guru's Can
help me.

We are currently running TSM 4.1.2.0 on a 390 mainframe running on a token
ring network
We currently back up on average 230 nodes per night amounting to approx.
+60GB per night.

We have found TSM very CPU intensive in relation to other applications, say
DFDSS moving 2GB or FTP or HSM.  I realise that backing up data comes at a
cost but are any of you experiencing similar
Problems with TSM and OS390 ?

Or is it just that TSM running on a mainframe is notoriously CPU intensive

any replies on performance re 390 and TSM appreciated.
