Dear Group We have a lot of Windows- and Novellmachines with Files counted between 2 Mio. and 7 Mio. Restore from 3590 even with Filespacecollcation takes its time. On the Novell all files are on 1 volume (sic!). Now we are looking for 3592 drives. Our IBM businesspartner (no streamin - no fun) means we speed up to 40MB/sec. even with data incremented for ever. Restore, streamin, 40MB/sec. hmm.... The 3590E keeps 40GB nativ, the 3592 keeps 300GB nativ, if both of them where same filled, the speed on 3592 is 5* faster buth the cap. is 7.5* more, do we realy get out this performance? So the strong incremented (yes,yes progressiv backup) data from one node is on a 3592 spreaded over 300GB together with other clientdata (maybe groupcollo after 5.3.?). Env. TSM Server 5.2.3.3 on Z/OS with most Windows and Novellclient on > 5.2
