I doubt very much that tracing did anything to improve the performance. If anything, it impedes performance. There is most likely something else going on in the environment, though what I do not know. The data transfer time of 323 seconds suggests that it took TSM 5 minutes and 23 seconds to move

COMMMethod is set to SHAREDMEM and has been that way from the start. I'm got tracing turned on now so we will see if that reveals anything. Here is the summary of our archive from last night. Network(FIBER) throughput seems to be ok but the Aggregate is abysmal. Compression is also turned off si

We also recently migrated from SCSI attached 3590E drives to SAN attached 3592 drives (both in a 3494 library). Unfortunately, we only saw an increase in the performance with the new tape drives. As Richard mentioned, it may be an issue with the mounting of the data on th
