Greetings,
We have issues performing restores of many small files. We are =
performing cold backups for our Oracle 11i instances which are about 95 =
Gig and include about 575k files. The backup times is about 3.5-4 =
hours, which really isn't an issue. But, when we try doing a restore, =
it take between 9-11 hours. I do have the Veritas NetBackup Performance =
Tuning white papers v. 1.51, and have a few questions about that. First =
of all, our indexing level is already set to 9, so that setting is =
confirmed. My next settings would be the buffer settings. Has any =
tried changing these and seen results? I looked at the =
SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS and for some reason they were set to 262144 or 256k. =
I changed them (according to the documentation) to 65536 or 64k. I =
noticed that the 256k buffer was also on the media server as well. Do =
the buffer sizes need to be identical for both master, media, and =
client? What about changes to the NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS and =
NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS_RESTORE?
Thanks,
