Hi You shouldn't use Compressalways YES. If the file grows, instead of shrinks, TSM will keep on compressing the file. This will make the backups take a whole lot longer.

I really need the Client compression, but my question is: - Should you use the '"COMPRESSALWAYS YES"? If not why? Best regards Flemming Hougaard
