Is this client writing to disk or to tape? If tape, what kind? Orville L. Lantto Glasshouse Technologies, Inc.

However, all the brands/models of 1GB NIC that I have seen only work if set to auto. I've never seen an instance where forcing 1gb/full duplex was even an option. Of course, this also means that the switchport has to be set to auto. If you try to force it, that will somtimes prevent it from linking correctly at 1gb. That said, I agree that the issue sounds like a network or client config issue. Even if another transfer type (like ftp) can't be tried between the same peers, is it possible to do a ftp transfer from the trouble machine to a different server (i.e. not the tsm server)? We just need to know if it gets slow transfer ONLY between itself and tsm, or if it happens from that machine to any other machine. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2/22/2006 3:22:40 PM >>> Chances are it's not a TSM issue at this point but a network issue. Usually speeds this slow on a GB infrastructure indicate that "auto-negotiation" is not working. ( never does ). Make sure all NIC's and switch ports are locked down to 1GB at full duplex.
