Error description
Incremental backups of Tivoli Storage Manager clients can take significantly longer (or hang) after updating the Tivoli Storage Manager server to version 6.1. Additionally the clients will show a very high memory consumption during the incremental backup and the client session does only transfer a small amount of data. . The symptoms are similar to those described in APAR IC65323 which describes backup performance degradation when backing up to disk storage pools with caching enabled. While APAR IC65323 only applies to Tivoli Storage Manager 6.1.3, the symptoms of this APAR can be observed with all Tivoli Storage Manager server levels 6.1 on all platforms, regardless if caching is used or not. . Versions Affected: Tivoli Storage Manager 6.1.3 . Customer/L2 Diagnostics (If Applicable) The symptoms are most likely seen on filesystems with a large amount of objects . Initial Impact: High . Additional Keywords: zz61 incremental performance sort algorithm
