[Veritas-bu] Windows media server question
2005-09-14 03:54:52
Hello JK
I think it depends on CPU's, the amount RAM, number of HBA's
But the first thing to do is tune netbackups SIZE_DATA_BUFFER and
NUMBER_DATA_BUFFER for enterprise tape drives
I have seen 25 MBytes/sec on a windows machine to STK9940A drives (30
MBytes/sec native) with
NUMBER_DATA_BUFFER 32
SIZE_DATA_BUFFER 262144 (256K)
There is also the MaximumSGList (see
http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/pipermail/veritas-bu/2003-March/015785.html) ,
which I havn't tried to use yet
Regards
Michael

LTO3 drive? Can a single windows media server push multiple LTO3 drives?
