weekdays Schedule 2 - backup saturday Seems to me it'd be an easy thing for Tivoli to improve.. Another thing some people do is have a cronjob or admin schedule that does an update schedule command to change the parameter at the appropriate time. But it amounts to the same annoyance.

that your major problem is your network throughput here.. NOT the number of files you're backing up. Check with the FTP test above and check NIC/network settings. I bet your problem lies there. Gerald Wichmann System Engineer StorageLink 408-844-8893 (v) 408-844-9801 (f) -Original Message

Sorry my math was off by a factor of 100.. :-) 283000/522000 = 5421 seconds = 90.35 minutes = 1.5 hours.. So perhaps it's not that big a network issue afterall.. but still I'd look into the network throughput performance. Gerald Wichmann System Engineer StorageLink 408-844-8893 (v) 408-844
