entstat (under AIX) use "entstat -r en#" to reset the stats, then just use the "entstat en#" to get current stats...

Two fast ethernet & one GB. You have to remember that your standard TCP/IP routing is what determines how these boxes talk ! Client traffic will go in which ever interface you point to and will return out to the client based on standard routing in the system (but will go back to the ip in the received packets). Back when we built our environments "SAN" wasn't really around so we built a sudo-SAN. Works great ! Our busiest S70 TSM server (just 2 processors & 1 GB memory) seems to max out at about 60-ish GB/hr of inbound compressed client data (actually kind of hard to find enough clients to push more than that ;-) but I need to check recent #'s ) (so during DB backups, that is about 240 GB/hr of client file spaces being backed up) Is this good or bad ? ? ? It is just what we see and it serves our needs !

Or do you need to run multiple instances on one machine ? TSM Server Config example : Listening for backup data on NIC1 : 192.168.10.10:1500 and on NIC2 : 10.10.10.10:1500 + other nic for normal lan traffic Just wondering if adding extra LAN cards in every client to increase the total bandwith, is a cheap alternative for SAN environments. For example : client config with 3 NIC's : NIC1 : regular client traffic NIC2 : for online database backup (scheduler 1) (backup lan 1) NIC3 : for backup of regular file (scheduler 2) (backup lan 2) 2 x 100 Mbit bandwith to backup Any remarks about this ? I agree, it isn't a good alternative, but I was just wondering if this is possible ? Thanks !
