Which ones - journaling, sub-file backup or something else. IMHO journaling is only useful for filesystems with millions of small files. Yes, this may help but is W2k specific. UNIX compensates with better I/O throughput. And running any DB server on Windows for me is saving on purchase to increase maintenance costs. But what if unstable server goes down several times and has to be restored more often than a reliable UNIX box. Sub-file backup is implemented only in Windows because it is most used platform for mobile users. Maybe soon we will have this functionality also on Mac and/or Linux. But does anyone move a server constantly to locations with only dial-up access? It would be interesting to see what is the installed base for each platform. Some of the subscribers to the list already have shown what they do have (or plan to install). Zlatko Krastev IT Consultant "Joshua S.

TSM on W2K works even better. A lot of the new development going forward is actually on Windows servers so it may exceed UNIX in terms of functionality. For smaller environment I would recommend TSM on an W2K server, but for large environment backing up at least 1TB a day or more, I have to stick with AIX or Solaris for my TSM server.

A colleague has asked if I would recommend TSM to run a similar complex on NT servers. I thought I would ping this forum to see if those of you running your TSM servers on NT platforms are satisfied, what numbers of clients you take care of, types of tape and disk storage you use, etc. Thank you.
