Yesterday I upgraded my TSM server to 5.2.6.1 from 5.1.6.3. While the system was running on AIX 4.3.3 and TSM 5.1.6.3 backups were fairly quick and typically if I saw a backup running in the morning when I came in it pointed to a NIC/SWITCH mismatch. After upgrading AIX to 5.2, TSM still 5.1.6.3, the system seemed the same, and by the way I should mention the system was running 64 bit mode but was NOT running 64 bit TSM code.
When I upgraded TSM yesterday I changed to the 64 bit code thinking things should be "at least as fast". As I watched backups last night things seemed quite slow. The database backups seem to have quadrupled in the time it takes to complete one. This morning I also see 7 backups still running. So the question is have others seen a drop in performance after upgrading to 5.2 TSM? Thanks for any insight you can provide, Thanks, Geoff Gill TSM Administrator SAIC M/S-G1b (858)826-4062 Email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
