We are new to Linux, most of the estate that we backup are Windows, AIX & Netware clients. I've been able to install the TSM clients on the a few test servers and these have been backing up without many issues presenting themselves. We currently use TSM Server 5.5.2.1, and TSM client 5.5.1.4 installed on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3. Is anyone else running TSM Clients on Red Hat? I'm looking for suggestions so we can optimise the option files for these new servers. I've had a look at a performance redbook IBM have previously pointed me to, but it doesn't contain anything specific for Linux. IBM have advised there doesn't seem to be too many problems with performance on Linux, though I would still like to make sure we have it as streamlined as possible. Any ideas?
