Clearly, this is not exactly the case; LAN-free data is written to tape in a

will restart (repeatedly) due to your other
settings (like reclamation thresholds, etc.) , which could cause this to recur

Petur,
You will need v5 server, as well as client; there are other limitations --
see the post from Anthony Wong, and go RTFM... they are now posted at

Have fun!

Yep... it's possible to arrange a single-drive environment; it's highly
dependent on the onsite person doing tape mounts on request, and organizing
the tape pool to satisfy your retention requirements -- if you're lucky, get
sufficient disk pool storage to allow either single-drive reclamation
multiple
NIC's of varying speeds and bandwidth, as well as number of SCSI
drives/ports, etc. (search the archive for recent info about sizing the
server).

you please highlight some benefits of using EDT-DT in a context where
it's not
absolutely required?!? (In my client's shop, the TSM servers are on AIX,
the ACSLS
is on its own Solaris box.)
Thanx,

that allows you mark the currently active versions of
backup
files with a different retention than others, I think it would be new news
to most of us...
please share.
Thanks,

San
-- volhist is a good reference source). When we have
a mix of scratch and private, loaded en masse, we just run the checkin for
scratch first, then checkin the rest as private --- barcode and search=yes
runs the two passes very fast!@!

Are you sure you're using CAT-5 cable?
You say the NIC's are forced at 100/full -- how about the switch ports?
Is there adjacent noise that might be emitting across the network?
Do you have old vs. current switch HW? Is it up to date, microcode?
VLAN's -- are you sure it's a point-to-point and
.
