Looks to me based on the calculations if it goes over a little more than 2 hours acceptable. What's acceptable to me might not be acceptable to others.
225 GB per hour, or 62.5 MB/s LTO2 drives can writes 70 ~75 MB/s It's difficult to PD without seeing the whole environment where the bottle neck is, but one area I would check woud be how LTO drives are assigned to HBA card(s) on TSM server. If you have fibre LTO drives, I would check how HBAs are assigned to LTO drives. For example, If you have 1 HBA assigned to LTO drive 1 and 2 another HBA assigned to LTO drive 3,4 When backup occurs, if tapes are mounted from each HBA: drive1 and drive 3, would have a greater performance than say you were to use drive1 and drive 2.
