RE: Added 39.6GB file to backup, time only grew 4 minutes.

Rob,

When you run this command do you see *YES or *NO

CALL PGM(QBRM/Q1AOLD) PARM('PARMOVR' '*DISPLAY' 'ASYNCBRING')
ASYNCBRING: *YES.

CALL PGM(QBRM/Q1AOLD) PARM('PARMOVR' '*DISPLAY' 'ASYNCBRING') ASYNCBRING:.

Comparing that with the BRMS flight recorder and it doesn't look like we are using that.

Rob,

Are you using ASYNCBRING, default is *NO.
You may see even faster results.
My entire IFS save is only 5 minutes, LTO5 fiber.

Added a 39.6GB stream file to our backup. The save time only grew four
minutes. Yes, I am rather fond of fiber LTO4 drives.
