>I'm curious as to what kind of MB/sec throughput people are seeing with TSM
and LTO drives.

It varies drastically for us based upon the objects being moved, of course.
10-15MB/s / drive is normal for us overall.

>How many MB/sec does a migration process produce in your environment?

We achieve about 12-14MB/s per drive when performing migration.

>Does anyone have any DB's streaming directly to LTO and some figures?
Appreciate any feedback

Yes, our Exchange boxes stream nicely at about 15MB/s per drive.

HTH!
