Is anyone using Tivoli Storage Manager with AFS filesystems? This is a terribly slow solution and we havnt been able to find an acceptable alternative. We are using a P650 as a server and LTO2 tape drives. We recently did a restore of 20 GB that took 27 hours. Non AFS data can be restored at about 50 GB per hour.

Any ideas would really be appreciated.  Thanks.

We are using also TSM for file-based backup. This, however, is used only to restore old versions of single files, not in case of broken filesystems. With today's huge /vicep-partitions we use RO-volumes on separate servers as backup solution. These RO-volumes can be converted to RW-volumes within few minutes.
