Well, On the IBM SP we ran backups over the internal switch which was 17GB(yte) if I recall.
And we currently have fibre attachements to drives, so I don't know why the speed of the NIC should be a concern. The operation of the NIC is under the OS, not TSM. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/25/07 4:41 PM >>> Is anyone running TSM over 10 Gbit ethernet? Is there any question that it would be supported? We have two data centers about 60 miles apart. We are planning to send backup files from each data center to a 3584 ATL in the other via a 10 Gbit ethernet link. The server hardware would be HP DL585- G2's with Myricom 10 Gbit NICs and 2.6 Ghz AMD processors. The operating system would be Redhat EL 4. If anyone else has experience with TSM and 10 Gbit ethernet we would be glad to hear about it.
