This is SAN throughput. The NamedPipe setting is for the Storage Agent to
talk to the Backup/Archive client. We are writing to STK 9940 tape drives

Dwight,
Right you are! The DSMSERV EXTEND LOG command requires the size parameter
to be 1 less than the DSMFMT command previously issued. Go figure.
Any how, I now find that the TSM 3.7.2 log file max might just be 5.5GB
and the 'extend log' command requires the 1mb reduction.

I would definitely suggest collocation if you can't afford the tapes for
full backups. Another suggestion if you are backing up large flat
directories (i.e. Home directories), use the dirmc option to keep

Yes,
Novell is a problem for fast full restores.
But you can achieve the same effect as full backups of consolidating your active

by creating backupsets.
This avoids that nasty growth problem in the database.

We have the opposite situation - we have fast robotics and use collocation.
With collocation on fast tape, it doesn't matter whether you are doing 2
