In BRMS, is there a way to determine the actual time it took to save a
library?
In our daily backup, we perform a full save of four main libraries to tape.
They all start within a couple of minutes, and end 90 minutes later. Here is
a partial list of the media information report (entries before and after
these five are excluded):
Saved Save Item Save Save Expire Objects

The tape drive is single LTO1 (3581). We are V5R4. (Unfortunately, we have
vendor software issues - sitll! - that prevent us from moving to 6.1.)
Our current save strategy is to save the enitre system on Sunday, then save
specific libraries (full save) during the week. In the event of a disaster,
we only need a Sunday tape and the most recent daily tape. Other libraries
not saved daily were determined to be of low risk.
We are looking to reduce our current backup window.
Thanks in advance,
Loyd
