LANfree, effectively, allows you to directly attach the tape device to the
client node.
So it can run either near the speed you can directly stream to the device
(as you would from a
TSM server) or however fast the node can push data out in a single stream.
Pick the slower of the 2.
We have found older and I/O bound servers getting up to half the throughput
of something
new, out of the box.
Sounds like you have more than enough grunt to push data through to the
drives.
Cheers, Suad

Subject: WHAt is TRUE LAN FREE backup speeds?option to backup huge data
bases. I am working from a p690 14 CPU
server with all the data spread on 3 different Shark systems. I am
considering using some SAn attached 9840C (30MB/sec uncompressed)
drives.
What kind of throughput speeds are people getting using the LAN FREE
Hello all,
It me again with the big DB2 warehouse backup questions. As we try
to come up with better design considerations I really would like to know
what kind of throughput people are getting when using the LAN FREE
option?
PS: I am hoping to still use the DB2 backup faciity with multiple
sessions to multiple tape drives.
Thanks in advance
Matt
