Performance Tuning Without the Blindfold
Mr. Lindsay Morris, Applied System Design
For Tivoli Storage Manager users who want to boost performance: the problem
of measuring the various pieces of the system is difficult, but not
impossible. But what then? How should you proceed after you have the data?
Come see a structured process for improving the performance of your TSM
server site, presuming the data is freely available. With Servergraph/TSM to
collect data and visually display performance over time, you can visualize
performance trends and bottlenecks. Compare output from several different
TSM sites, and find practical solutions, from basic tuning parameters to
non-standard techniques made possible only by detailed data analysis.
