Sounds like you might want to get your network guys to double check the
network config settings between the client and the server - are your
local machine and switch/router ports all hard coded to the same media
settings (e.g. 100Mb/Full Duplex) and not reliant upon auto detect?

Absolutely right. Use the 'dirmc' option to override the default behaviour.

Gerald,
When you say "Full".. do you mean backing up all
databases using "DOMDSMC SELECTIVE"?
And when you say "INCREMENTAL", do you mean using the
"DOMDSMC INCREMENTAL" command?
... or when you say incremental are you referring to
running DOMDSMC ARCHIVELOG to get the logs backed up?
Remember...

Was this a restore across different Domino servers?
What was the version of the Domino server that you took

Frank,
The procedure to define disk based volumes has not changed, so you're
right !
You could eventually get a rid of the "dsmfmt blah ." step while
using : "define volume formatsize=xxx"xxx
being the size in MB you want for your volume.
Hope this helped ...
Cheers.

Talk to the person who manages the firewall.
It is common for firewall software to have its own "idletimeout" value.
If a session goes quiet for a time, the firewall terminates the session.
And it is not uncommon for TSM backups to exceed the firewall timeout
value - can happen easily if TSM spen

Hi Frank,
simply: yes.
There is the possibility to use raw-volumes (logical volumes without filesystems),
see the docs.
Some enhancements to your (my) procedure:
- use jfs2 (gives you some additional space)
- after defining the volume in TSM, the TSM server uses direct IO (dio).
- dsmfmt -data

For the TSM domain where this server lives (you may only have 1 domain,

the non-active policy set. You define new retention rules in the new

You activate the policy set you just edi

That means i should not go for image backup, but just incremental every would do
