Hi William,
Apart from the normal - memory/Cpu constraints that you must stay
aware of - remember that your Tsm client makes use of a netware
userid to do the backups - make sure this ID can open enough
sessions to support what you want from the client - so yes there
IS a session limitation linked to the userid being used - but
this can be set by the netware administrators.
Cheers
Christo

I recently tried to backup up a Netware box straight to disk. I did this
manually and opened 12 sessions (6 seperate backups). We had MacAfee
running and are thinking that the combination of the two caused the Netware
Client to reboot. It has a 100 MB card and I was trying to backup as fast
as possible for a restore to a different box. The total of 88 GB was need
to be backed up so that it could restore. I thought I could open as many
sessions as I wanted since I was going straight to disk and then I would
have done the same on the restore. Is there a known limitation on the
client for open sessions according to the size of the box or otherwise?
Would the backup have caused even remotely the Netware client to reboot?
And for future use is there anyway of telling how many sessions to open on
any box? Some guidelines or other?
Thank you in advance.
