Paul, Where do you get the figure 33MB/sec?
11000MB / 7200sec = 1.53MB/sec Regards, David Smith AIX Administrator Corporate Express Australia -----Original Message----- From: Seay, Paul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, 14 March 2002 3:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Reorg your database The database is blocked at 4K. I doubt what you are saying is true. Simply, the database disk will never run at 33MB/sec. It really depends on how your tape and disk are configured. -----Original Message----- From: Michael, Monte [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2002 10:26 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Reorg your database Dave, Can you unload the TSM database to a disk volume? I have always unloaded to a 3590 tape drive. Disk would be much faster..

Our 18GB database shrank to 11GB and a 'query archive' that used to run for over an hour now takes 10 seconds. It took 4 hours to dump (to a fileclass volume) and 2 hours to load on an RS/6000 6M1 but it was mostly I/O so I don't think the speed of the machine helped all that much. I did have a failure running it on 4.1.2 server as it locked up when changing from one file volume to another. I updated to 4.1.5 and made the fileclass max volume size 20GB. The unload then ran fine to the one file volume.

It sounds like this should be done every so often. We have some problems that I believe this may fix, but am a little bit nervous and have not done so. My question is ( for people who have ran this) How has it worked for you and do you run this as a procedure, or only when you think the DB is fragmented or in need. Maybe how difficult is the procedure, and any do's and don'ts......Thanks for your help! Thanks, Mark Hayden Network Administrator E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
