Hi Adrian,
installing a second TSM server instance on the same machine will solve
your problem as long as the machine itself is not cause of that. Have you
already checked the usage of cpu, memory, disks, network, and the tape
storage devices? You will need more CPU power and at least 25% more memory
running two instances.
If your problem is caused by backing up some clients over a long period of
time and/or from - something like - different time zones having two or
more TSM server instances should help. If some local clients are running
too long, check for doing things more in parallel and/or start using
journal based backup (if possible). I've found that more easy than
administering many instances... You will find additional tuning tipps in
the TSM Performance & Tuning Guide
Best regards

[ADSM-L] 2nd Instance of TSM
Hi all
I am considering a 2nd Instance of TSM on the same AIX 5.3 server.
I have a TS3310 tape library with 6 drives, which will obviously have to
be shared with the 1st instance.
I am considering this as I am having a hard time getting all my schedules
and the Administrative tasks completed in a 24hr cycle.
My offsite creates are taking ages and run from 4am until +- 3-4pm not
leaving a large enough window for admin tasks.
Is this a good practice from your previous experiences?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Adrian Compton
