Hi All
We are running some NDMP backups in parallel using the PARALLEL

Since moving to 7.1.1.300 from 6.3 we have noticed that we are getting

It very much depends on the disk you are putting these on. It is a lot
easier to get bigger cheaper disks to stream data using FILE than to do
lots of small IOPS using DISK.
We were mainly concerned about getting a large amount data to the disk
storage pool and to tape as quickly as possible.
This is my observation for File based stg pools so YMMV
For File based storage pools, TSM seems to create the files in a round
robin fashion for each storage directory.
Anything past the initial client sessions, TSM is ignorant of the
storage. It does not care where the data comes from, other

Hi
Snapdiff backups can only be done on the volume level. eg on Netapps we

need to MOUNT it at the VOLUME level.
I also created a wiki which has some other snapdiff features.
