advice to optimise backup time
2004-07-09 10:13:40
Hello,
We have more and more prob with the backup : it takes more then 14 h.
It's not amanda fault just the amount of data. :-)
For now we have a backup server with a amanda partition with 18 GB
connected to a IBM LTO Ultrium 3581 tape Charger (7 tapes). The Hardware
compression is off (sofware compression is used).
Now we have GB network and faster server with losts of RAM and HD spaces
and I want to install Amanda on our prod server which have the largest
amount of data.
so is-ti better (faster backup) to have :
hardware or software compression ?
A larger amanda partition ?
is there another amanda tweaks to speed up the backup process ?
Thanks a lot !!!!
