multiple DLE with tar vs one big DLE with dump (million of files)
2008-10-01 12:31:52
Hello,
We have a lots of performance problems with our Amanda setup.
One of our servers have a 760 GB file system that needs to be backup.
There are 9,286,637 files in this partition. This is the biggest
partition and the most important.
Our holding disk has a size of 886 GB.
We are using Amanda 2.5.0p2
We would have no prob upgrading to 2.6 IF there is a performance boost.
The dumptype for this partition is :
define dumptype tar-high-span-lan {
program "GNUTAR"
comment "Partitions dumped with tar"
compress none
estimate calcsize
index yes
comment "For LAN Servers. High priority partitions dumped with tar
with spanning of 40GB (10% of tape)"
tape_splitsize 40 Gb
priority high
}
OR
define dumptype dump-high-lan {
program "DUMP"
comment "Partitions dumped with dump"
estimate calcsize
index yes
comment "For LAN Servers. High priority partitions dumped with dump"
priority high
}
Is it better to :
Use dump for the entire partition in one DLE ?
Or split the partition in several partitions and use tar ?
