Hi,

 

I'm looking for information about how/whether a slow client may impact
the performance of other backup clients.  One source that I've consulted
is telling me that one slow client multiplexed onto a tape with faster
clients will slow down the faster clients.  Is this possible?  

 

They are recommending that I segregate the slower clients in my
environment onto a separate pool or within a separate group so that this
doesn't happen.  Is this correct?  It was my impression that groups and
pools were designed to logically segregate data based on data
requirements rather than as tools to tune a backup's performance.

 

Thanks.

Teresa
