the bottleneck is not usually the network, but the disk at the source server. 5
to a maximum of 10 GB/hour is the best performance to be expected. How, it
works: the dsmicfgx tool will guide you through the steps, and yes, the source
server must be down. That is BTW the reason why at that database size the
downtime is maybe an issue.
