TSM Client Throttling During Backup

A TSM server backing up several clients can not prevent large amounts of data being ingested from the clients. Resource utilization can be adjusted in order to effect resources on the client, but not, to control data transferred. The mount points and sessions can be adjusted on the server, but, this is often difficult for the restriction of certain clients. An ability to throttle back client data transfer from the server (preferred) or client similar to FastBack for Workstations is desired by a large number of clients.

    While consistent with our current product direction, we cannot at this time commit to delivery of this enhancement in the next release or two. If,
    after our next release of TSM, you still would like this requirement to be re-considered, please reopen it in RFE and we will again consider it. Thank you
    for your commitment to TSM and for your support in moving the product forward.
