Piece of cake ! but depends... 1) need big client box 2) need data such that multiple concurrent sessions may run 3) go to a diskpool... We can back up a 3.4 TB data base in 12 hours... E10K with 64 processors, 25 get dedicated to a TSM TDP/R3 backup (25 concurrent sessions), run client compression, go to diskpool that is about 900 GB, across Gig Ethernet. Backup speeds (thruput) of up to 100+ GB/hr of compressed data. If you only have a 100 Mb/sec Fast Ethernet, your max thruput will be cut back to 41-ish GB/hr compressed client data. Our SAP data bases have (over the last 5 years) seen 3.8/1 compression using tsm client compression.
Nice thing here is that... your backup server may be located just about anywhere, like across town at a disaster recovery site ;-) Dwight E.

Possible or not? Do I have to use a SAN that I get acceptable transfer rates? If there is anybody out there who backs up such a big amount of data: How is your "TSM"-area constructed? (e.g. Server-type, LAN, SAN ...)
