I know you probably checked this, but we just had a problem like this -
slow backup, long idletimes.  It was on Netware, but I have also seen it
on AIX.  Our problem was a mismatch in duplex - the switch thought it
was half, and the box thought it was full.  Try doing an FTP between the
AIX box and the TSM box, and see what your throughput it.
