One session is most likely the scheduler, and the
other session is TDP for Exchange. You could change your
scheduled backup script to simply launch the

To do this, place "start /B" in front of your commands.

Ordinarily, I'd say "man telinit". Except, of course, AIX has
been continually making the online documentation more and more
of a pain for old-school Unix folks to use.
You're looking for "telinit q". This tells the init command to
re-examine the /etc/inittab file. It's standard SysV
You need to stop and restart the service on the client, so it can query the server to
find out it's next schedule, which in this case would the immediate action you
created. Otherwise you will need to wait till the client checks for its next schedule
on its own...

When you say stripe across 5-6 disks are ou saying a RAID5 set. Also, I
thought if you set compression at the client level, the data will not
compress when it gets migrated to tape. Also, what do you mean by at the
block level. Should you use JFS or raw filesystems for your ADSM volumes.
Easy to imagine, not take the same amount of money the tape drive cost and
buy disk, stripe the disks across 5-6 drives and two controllers at the
block level. Dedicate this resource to the one server for the backup period
and run the backup. Which is faster now? Also compress on the client s
The disks are not setup optimally. A DD to one 10K SSA disk to another can
run a 30 Meg per second. Stripe across five drives and this will be even
faster for a single system. The problem usually is the person that
optimizes the disks does not optimize them for ADSM.
If you turn on compression
Hey, people !
Are we comparing apples to apples?
Is the 10 MB/s to disk compressed?
Or is a 3:1 tape hardware compression ratio
clouding the issue ?
