The only thing that has worked for us in these types of cases is to run a
selective backup rather than an incremental.
This way TSM just backs up every file rather than going through the examination
process.
This may or may not help you as I don't know the specifics of your systems.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Slow client backup

Hi Everyone,

I am looking for suggestions on how to improve the backup of an AIX TSM client:


                     Node Name: CHRS141

                      Platform: AIX

               Client OS Level: 5.3

                Client Version: Version 5, release 5, level 2.0

            Policy Domain Name: AIX

To a TSM AIX server at the 5.5.5.0 release.

It appears that it is examining over 15 million files which to me is most likely
the root cause of the backup taking so long.  Is there anything that can be done
to make this backup run faster/more efficiently?

Please let me know.  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!  Thanks!
