Hi, No, you can not limit the bandwidth within Windows for one application. However some application have their own setting for throttling ex. Backup Exec.
By design TSM client is set to use as much resources it needs during backup ex. cpu, memory and network. Regarding network traffic, IBM reluctant refuse to understand and implement the consept of QoS, Qualtity of Service, in TSM. Thinking of just one server/one OS when you try to implement a restriction of how much network trafic TSM should be allowed to generate doesn't scale very well. You could talk to your network guys and ask them to implement QoS on port 1500/1501 on their routers and make sure that TSM only uses thoose two ports. //Henrik -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tony Trinh Sent: den 9 juni 2008 18:30 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Throttle a Windows client?

I imagine this topic would have been covered, but can't find anything on it. I don't think you can do it within TSM (correct me if I'm wrong) but does anyone know how to limit the bandwidth that is used by the tsm client on windows? I.E. "Never use more than 20% of the network connection", "never exceed 5 mb/s etc." Regards, Shawn ________________________________________________ Shawn Drew This message and any attachments (the "message") is intended solely for the addressees and is confidential.
