Other than lowering the backup process prioritys another way to cause TSM
to use less resources is to set 'MEMORYEFFICIENT YES' in the options.
This will cause TSM to use less memory, and also slow down it's disk
scanning.
Also check TSM's 'copy group' serialization parameters, the default of
'sha
There is a way to do that. Just set the backup process to "BelowNormal" or
"Low" priority.

In Unix, at least, a less important process (the backup, in this case)
can be "reniced" to reduce its impact, giving the more important
processes a higher relative priority in accessing resources. There may
be a similar mechanism for Windows.
Incremental backups have a considerable impact be

Thanks for the suggestions so far. I should have mentioned that this is
for an application server who's performance is important 24x7. We do
already schedule during off-peak, but even so

We have a couple of clients here (Sun, Windows) who have noticed
dramatic
slowdowns on their application servers when TSM incremental backups
run. Has anyone developed mechanisms to address this? TIA
