Geesh...somehow the line endings got all munched up on my console
output in the last email. Hopefully this is actually readable.
Sorry for the double post!

Here's the output for a moderate size copy job going from local disk
(FileChgr1-Dev1) to the SAS attached LTO-6 tape (Drive-1)
showing the Drive -1 speed as 23.22MB/s:

I'm able to get good write speeds to the LTO-6 drive with btape as shown here:

I'm also able to get good read speeds off the drive array as shown by bonnie++ here:

And it's pretty fast using dd to read a bacula file from the job as well:
backup bacula # dd if=full-Vol-0029 of=/dev/null bs=4M
12799+1 records in
12799+1 records out
53687083817 bytes (54 GB, 50 GiB) copied, 111.637 s, 481 MB/s
Here's my tape drive and local file storage config in the bacula-sd.conf:
#
# A file changer for disk based backups
#
Autochanger {
Name = FileChgr1
Device = FileChgr1-Dev1
Changer Command = ""
Changer Device = /dev/null
}
Device {
Name = FileChgr1-Dev1
Media Type = file
Archive Device = /home/backups/bacula
LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = no;
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 5
}
#
# An HP 1/8 autochanger device with one drive
#
Autochanger {
Name = AutochangerHP
Device = Drive-1
Changer Command = "/usr/libexec/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Device = /dev/sg3
}
Device {
Name = Drive-1 #
Media Type = LTO-6
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = yes
Maximum File Size = 10GB
Alert Command = "sh -c 'smartctl -H -l error %c'"
}
I'm a little stumped about why the raw hardware read/write speeds are so different from the bacula copy job speeds. I'm hoping the collective wisdom of the list can give me some ideas on other places to look for speed issues or config changes so that I don't prematurely wear out this drive head with shoe-shining (of course...faster backups are always welcome too!).
Thanks in advance!
