Hello Everyone I have the (perhaps) crazy idea that having backupsets around can help my restore time even if they reside on a library controled by the TSM server. I have a server with around 400,000 small files and over 150 Gigs. I can't do Image Backups cause files reside on an old NAS. I have an average backup trhoughput of about 6 Mb/Sec but restore is not good: 2.2 Mb/Sec. I got the idea that if I do periodic backupsets and restore from those, even though they'll be traveling trough the network, restore tiem will decrease.
Is all this real or am I missing something? How do backupsets integrate in your backup strategy? ____________________________________________ Ing. Jorge A. Salinas G.
