Hi Mike,

I can give some hints to NETBASE:

If you're using shadowing with the Quest's NETBASE (or HP's SharePlex)
stuff and you have a high rate of created transactions to be shadowed,
it's wise to place the NETBASE account to volumeset with low IO
activities; this is by all changing accesses to files specified in
NBDIR are intercepted by the NETBASE shell and cause entries in the
central message file NBM.IPC.NETBASE read by the export process.
If you monitor a growing count of allocated disc sectors to that
message file, try to nail the export process to priority BS
(NBCTRL.PUB.NETBASE, CONFIG, MODIFY SHADOW ...)

Hope, this helps you in one of your questions, regards
