Greetings... We have recently upgraded to TSM 4.1 from ADSM 3.1 and have noticed a severe performance issue. Specifically when using the AFS/DFS Backup by File client, file processing is EXTREMELY slow... in the order of 5-10 files per minute! Thankfully, the old client still works, and still works with reasonable speed (1,000's of files per minute). The server is idle when the client is 'processing', and in fact shows very long IdleWait times between communications (20+minutes). Has anyone else run into this problem? I've also noticed a distinct sluggishness in the 4.1 admin command line client that wasn't there before. Server and 4.1 clients are at version 4.1.2.0, old client is 3.1.0.7 all running on AIX 4.3.3. TIA! Regards, Brian +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Brian T.
