We used to see ~100MB/sec at night with tsm5.3 on Windows 2003. The nic was an intel dual-port gig-e. I've since enabled the 2nd port on the card to support load-balancing/teaming. That has moved our nightly throughput more into the 130MB/sec range.
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 9/8/2006 11:49 AM >>> I'd like to get some input on what others see on their port utilization during heavy network traffic. With 350+ systems backing up to a single TSM server I'm curious as to why we see only about 50% utilization on the GIG port with max scheduled sessions set to 95. Sessions run extremely long compared to when they were on the old system. What have others seen their systems and what do you have set for max scheduled sessions? I still feel like this system, which has 4 CPU's is not nearly as fast at moving data than my 2 CPU system was and the setup is very similar.
