Thanks Kurt for your quick response. We tried the ftp'ing between the servers and are not getting good results there either. In fact, we ran a wire directly from one nic to another and saw bad performance. There must be something on the AIX side we are missing.

About how much data can you push over the gig network between Tivoli and one client. The best I ever do is about 40 GB an hour.

(we are now working on 2 problems at once). The gig nics are set to auto_negotiate since AIX does not have a 1000/full setting. The network folks say everything is clean from their end. I would like to resolve the hung condition first and then continue to address the gig speed issues. Does anyone have some ideas. I can remove the options I changed but on face value I believe they should be set like this. Any and all help is appreciated. Have a nice day everyone.
