Hello All,

        We have a 700 GB data warehouse that we are attempting to get a full
backup done on.  It is running on a Netfinity 7000 running NT 4.0 SP6.  The
database is Oracle parallel server 8.0.5.2.1 running raw partition.  We are
attempting to get the backup done using RMAN and TDP for Oracle to an NT server
running TSM 3.7.2.  The full backup has been running for 18 hrs and has only
backed up approx. 60 GB.  We are painfully aware that our throughput is an issue
that needs to be addressed.

        Our questions:

        Is anyone else out there backing up a database that is this large and of
this or a similar configuration?

        Have you been successful?  If so, how are you doing it?

        Does anyone have any ideas on how we might want to handle this task?
Any and all approaches would be welcome (TSM or non-TSM).
