Are the boxes that are set to auto running at 1000? -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tyree, David Sent: Friday, April 06, 2007 11:20 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] TSM backup speed on a Windows server
In our case, we set the speed to the highest speed supported by the port on the switch and the server. If either side is set to auto then we end up with really poor performance. But not in every case, we have a couple of boxes that are set to auto and they are running just fine. Try different settings until you find the right one. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Richard Sims Sent: Thursday, April 05, 2007 10:40 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] TSM backup speed on a Windows server On Apr 5, 2007, at 10:27 AM, Luc Beaudoin wrote: > Is it recommend to set the speed to AUTO-NEGOCIATE on my Windows 2K > and > 2K3 servers ?? The only recommendation is to use whatever works best. Unfortunately, networking equipment is "all over the place" as to what combination of brands, models, and settings will actually do what you want it to. I've had to make counter-intuitive configuration settings in some cases to get proper operation. Confer with the networking people at your site for best advice for what you have there, then do testing.
