[no subject]

Gary,

I forgot to mention the backup was controlled. Meaning there were
no applications running, other than the adsm backup of course, and
no users were logged in during the backup.

The backup was ran one after the other. The only change I made to
the client was removed the dsmsched.log file after each backup.

The dsm.opt file was never touched at all.

Also the NT0_DIRECT_TO_TAPE had two retries for each directories
from the beginning of the backup but never had to retry more than
once thereafter.

Thanks,
Angel

   Angel,

           Any number of factors could explain the differences.  For
   instance,
   how close in time were the backups; how many of the files were
   temporaires;
   what was the file create/delete activity on the machines: were any
   changes
   made to Include/Exclude directive that didn't "appear" to make a
   difference?

           A "K' here and a "K" there soon make for "MB".

   Hello everyone.

   I have an NT client of which two management
   class defined.

   NT0_DEFAULT
         - Destination pool: NT0_DISKPOOL

   NT0_DIRECT_TO_TAPE
         - Destination pool: NT0_TAPEPOOL

   Both MC are defined with 65-days retain only backup version.

   I ran two FULL backups for each MC. The following are the results:

   NT0_DEFAULT:
   1.    17,677 objects inspected
         14,777 objects backed up
         1.35 GB bytes transferred
         00:50:44 elapsed processing time

   2.    17,817 objects inspected
         14,781 objects backed up
         1.35 GB  bytes transferred
         00:57:59 elapsed processing time

   NT_DIRECT_TO_TAPE:
   1.    17,685 objects inspected
         14,778 objects backed up
         954 MB bytes transferred
         00:41:03 elapsed processing time

   2.    17,753 objects inspected
         14,780 objects backed up
         954 MB bytes transferred
         00:40:40 elapsed processing time

   What's going here? Why are there more bytes transferred
   using NT0_DEFAULT and less bytes for NT_DIRECT_TO_TAPE?

   Can someone please explain this to me?

   TIA,
   Angel
