Hi, we have 300+ nodes on our tsm servers which have to do their backups nightly. Schedules should be spread through the whole night but I couldn't find a really good way yet how to do that. Currently I try to start ten schedules at most quarterly. Looking at backup logs and sessions I can see that there are quite some nodes idle waiting for the TSM server to serv nodes' requests. How do people time their schedules? Are there any additional tools which help in timing schedules (reporting/ spreading)? How can I improve timing of schedules? Did anybody try to use tsm server database (sql, odbc) in order to get detailed information about timing of schedules and based on that renew the start time?
Thanks, ..-- ________________________________________________________________________ Check Out the new free AIM(R) Mail -- 2 GB of storage and industry-leading spam and email virus protection.
