This is a specific requirement of a more general topic: since TSM know what it is doing, it can certainly tell us. I would ask development to give us some dashboard information about lots of things that go on within. Other items I can think of: during a restore, how many objects left to restore. Perhaps a count at the beginning as well. Maybe even the volumes that are going to be required during the restore. During the migration/backup stg/etc of a very large file, the number of MB already moved to tape so one can get an idea how long the operation might take. Especially interesting if one has to down the server for some reason (if only I had waited another two minutes, I wouldn't have to watch that 90GB file move again!).
Bottom line: we have less to worry about with TSM now. Now we want bells and whistles! Thanks, Kelly J.

Basically, the goal would be having an idea of remaining duration till the job ceases Thanks in advance !
