Jeff,
Yes in my experience Novell/TSM is not the best.
But what I found is that given the network bandwith(gigabit), and a sufficiently
powerful client box
(compaq proliant 8500), I was able to achieve the speed mentioned.
The server was on an os390 mainframe..
regards,
John

What was the Novell Client configuration? How about a little server
information?
I would like Novell to get 3 Meg per second on restores. 10 Gigs per hour,
but they currently bite.
