I run TSM 6.1.2.0 in a vSphere environment and it runs just fine on Windows
2008, I would recommend giving it two vCPU's if you can because it will fill up
1 vCPU easy.
I use a dedupe filepool on SATA storage, no tape attached.
I have tried a virtual TSM server with SCSI tape connection on ESX 2
What are folks doing to offload file-level backups from Linux guests running in
a VMware/ESX environment? VCB exists for Windows guests, but only supports
image backups for Linux guests.
Thanks.

Hi,
In our TSM environment we use two locations that are about 30 km away
from each other. On both sides we use TSM servers and 3592 tapedrives.
We use SAN and DWDM between the two locations. Writing data from a TSM
server to a tapelibrary that are on the same location have the speed
according the
My first guess is you are crossing a 1GB or slower link. Is the DWDM
aggregating multiple links to the get the 2.5GB? If it is your data may only
be flowing down 1 link at whatever speed that link is running.
Also, I think a 2Gb/sec connection is closer to 200MB/sec.

If I had to guess, I'd say you were runing out of BBCredits on the ISL
links between
the two datacenters due to the distance. BBCredits are basically buffers
on the link.
It takes time for a packet to travel the 30km. If you don't have enought
credits
to allow enought in-transit packets you loose
Here is a link that specifies what is supported and what isnt.

To update. We see encryption in the ActLog for AIX only on 5.5.2; nothing for
either LINUX or SOLARIS. Encryption is verified by the trace, even on some
old, no-supported versions. Users certainly would want an easy way to verify
on their own, without having to bother busy TSM admins.
Thanks
