Re: ONBar Restores and Tivoli Storage Manager

You could turn on debugging in your $ONCONFIG by setting BAR_DEBUG to 9 and BAR_DEBUG_LOG. This might give you a clue what is happening. What versions of TSM, TDP/Informix and IDS are you using and on what platform ? Have you enabled the COMPRESS option in TSM ? What are the settings of BAR_XFER_BUF_SIZE and BAR_NB_XPORT_COUNT ? What are the contents of your $INFORMIXDIR/etc/sm_versions file ? Normally the combination Informix/TSM works quite well.
