I did a restore yesterday, started it 8:13am and it only completed at 21:04 pm. This for the environment that we work with it is unacceptable in terms of response. My client - node is as follows:_ TSM 4.2 DB2 7.2 SAP R3 4.6c Database size is : 48gigs What can I do to make this process faster. The reason why I am concerned is that my backup only takes 1h30mins, so the most time it took I would have expected it to be 2 or 3hours. Please help....!!! > Lindy Crawford > Business Solutions: IT > BoE Corporate > > * +27-31-3642185 <<...OLE_Obj...>> +27-31-3642946 [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> WARNING: Any unauthorised use or interception of this email is illegal.
