Management class and by proxy copy groups are set at the file level. A node might have files assigned to different management classes depending on your inclexcl rules. A node itself belongs to a policy domain, which determines which policy set the node gets. Avy Wong wrote: Hi, Is there

Devtype FILE on NFS performance problem

2010-03-01 Thread Roger Deschner
We have a devtype=file stgpool that is on NAS disk, accessed via NFS, and we're getting very slow performance with TSM reading or writing it. In a test, the Unix cp command moved data about 5 times faster than TSM Migration. I have been adjusting the number of migration processes up and down, whil
