Hamilton, This is a known issue when you have huge numbers of inactive and active backups and your policy does not expire them in a timely manner (or ever). The problem is that the DP/Exchange GUI is querying and sorting huge numbers of TSM server objects in order to render them on the screen for

Hi Timothy! The first 5.5 patch level has yet to be released, so my guess is we'll have to wait a while before seeing the first maintenance release... Kindest regards, Eric van Loon KLM Royal Dutch Airlines -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On

Hi *, We have 10 tape drives, and two instances with a total of 16 onsite and offsite tape pools. In addition, we use Commonstore for mail. We get frequent complaints from users that their mail retrievals are very slow. Most of the time, they go back a few years and this data is on tape. When

Agreed. I tell my customers NOT to install OFS unless they have a reason, and only on systems where they know what the reason is. It triggers a LOT of unncessary and pretty unintelligible VSS errors, and is usually doing nothing worthwhile. Look at your TSM daily reporter output on clients

Dude, Let's get simple. Just download the .pdf version of the manual you want, put it on a CD, and take it to your local Kinko's/Fedex copy center. They will print from the pdf for you, double sided, B White or color, prepunched. I do it, when I need to. You can even log on and mail it to them so
