Hi Joe,
I strongly agree with Matt. I've done then same thing, that is client side
compression and hardware compression on tape. With TSM, with Networker -
I've never seen problems. On the server side all you lose is a bit of tape
capacity. The compression is hardware (sic!) not software. The

A long while back, I had 36 boxes of the following config: Pentium 100's,
128MB RAM, 16Mbit Token Ring, running OS/2 2.11 with Lan Server 4, Notes
4.1, backing up mail files as flat files. Turned client side compression
on, backup window went from 4 hours to 1.25 hours

1. Am I potentially doubling the size of certain files in the stg pool by
running multiple compression algorithms.?
No - the drive logic won't compress already compressed data, so there's no
real risk of this.
2. By turning off DEVCLASS compression, is that effectively disabling
