We are implementing a dedicated VLAN for gigabit-ethernet traffic and jumbo frames, primarily for backup/recovery TSM traffic. Do the following settings make sense for TSM/AIX servers in a large (2TB per backup window) environment? Any recommendations for network switch settings (i.e. keeping MTU size high, etc.)? Other considerations?
Thanks and Regards, John AIX Gigabit Ethernet Settings: Transmit and Receive jumbo frames YES Software transmit queue size 1024 Maximum IP Packet Size for this device 9000 AIX no options rfc1323=1 sb_max=1048578 thewall=524340 TSM Settings: TCPWindowsize 65536 TCPBufsize 16384 _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail
