They are running version 5.1 of the OS on this machine, and so can't use previous versions of the ADSM/TSM client. In their dsm.sys file they have set compression=yes and the node definition on the server has compression=client. Yet, when they backup their Oracle database they get 0% compression, even though the very same data backed up from a different node with True64 Unix 4f and the ADSM 3.1 client gets over 50% compression. I am wondering if there is some sort of bug in TSM 4.2 for True64 Unix. I looked in the adsm-l archives but did not see any mention of a problem. I'd appreciate any information on compression achieved in TSM 4.2 for Unix, particularly for True64 Unix, but information about compression on any Unix platform would be helpful. Thanks.
