Has anybody migrated a IBM 9133-55A V7.1.4.2 O/S to a IBM 750 (8408-E8D) using
sysback/6000 product and an IBM LTO4 tape which has the 55A O/S on it?? We are

Hi...
IBM has a fix for slow TSM DB Backups. It is called loopback TCP address
problem referenced to PMR #54435,379,000. TSM DB backups will run as fast as
before you performed the AIX V6.1.7.x/V7.1.x.x O/S upgrade.
Long.
You can test a higher AIX patch level other then AIX 7.1 and if you get
good DB backup speeds, please let us know.
