Re: truncated while reading in Shared Static mode
We have the same problem with the 3.7 and 4.1 clients. If you take note the files are backed up every time. Whether they've been changed has no bearing. I 've restored the files to another server and they seem to be undamaged. The Macs can read them fine. In our case the files are Macintosh namespace files. This from Tivoli support: I have generated an APAR IC29695 to address this. TSM NETWARE CLIENT 3.7 AND 4.1.1 GIVES ERROR DURING BACKUP: TRUNCATED WHILE READING IN SHARED STATIC MODE The fix is not available yet. We have reverted to the 3.1 client. BTW.

Re: Novell DS issue?
We run DS8.61 on a 5.1 and a 5.0 server. The only issues we have are the Netware 5.1 license objects will not backup, but Novell assures us that this is "working as designed". If you can be more specific, perhaps we can be more helpful.

Re: Netware restore problem
Is he backing up from his workstation? If so, all the client sees is a mapped drive. As far as I know, the file sytem rights of the client platform are backed up. The TSM client (Windows, I assume) knows nothing about the Novell trustee rights - except that he can see the files. He thinks he's backing up a local Windows drive. IMHO he should not be backing up mapped drives from a workstation. If your operation is as ours that would be redundant. We do incrementals of our servers (from the server) every night and all files are backed up with complete trustee information. If we restore them from the server all the rights will appear the next time he logs in his workstation.

Re: restoring on novell server
There appears to be space between the "." and the closing quote in the error message. Is it possible that there is an unprintable character after the "."? I can't create a file with a trailing dot (Windows Me and long namespace) unless I put something other than a space after it. It could be a language codeset issue. Perhaps a European character that is not understandable by Novell with the installed codeset?

Re: Netware Client abends
Since you can isolate it to a specific area there must be some corruption in the filesystem. Can you schedule a time to dismount the volume and run a Vrepair? If it shows no errors or does not correct the problem, you'll need to get the full abend message from the abend log (which includes the stack trace and loaded modules) and post it on the Netware 5 abend news forum. The nntp server is support-forums.novell.com. I haven't noticed any similar posts on the forums, but I don't believe it is a TSM issue specifically. The Novell Sysops can be very helpful in situations like this.

Re: NetWare Client abends
We have a PMR opened with Tivoli related to backing up Mac files. The 4.1 and 3.7 clients back them up every time, even though they haven't changed. It hasn't caused an abend yet.

Re: Restore Throughput
Last we did was two years ago. This was shortly after we started uing ADSM so the data on the tapes was not very fragmented. Netware 4.11 on a Compaq 2500 with an Adaptec 2944 attached to EMC external array. The client was 3.1 and also the server (running on an RS6000 - 7011 I believe, and 8mm drives). We restored 18 gig in about 6 hours to newly configured drives. We've recently migrated to a 3.7 server (RS6000-7043, with STK 9840's). We get over 4 gig per hour on backups wit 3.7 clients.

We are seeing about 1.2G an hour actual data being restored. Can anyone say whether this is about what we should expect? I have been in contact with Tivoli and tuned the client and server options per their instructions. I was wondering if anyone had any idea if this seems a reasonable rate. Thanks for any input.
