Bobby,
We get 12MB/sec(350GB) from our
Windows Notes netbackup client to our DSSU on our Solaris Master/Media
Server.
This is what we have done to increase
performance to 12MB/Sec
1.) Set Lotus Domino scheduled tasks
to happen outside of the backup window
2.) Made sure we have the latest nic and storage drivers.
3.) Both of these take time. Format
is probably the best way to clean things up.
a)
Run a defrag when Domino offline
b)
Backed up lotus domino (offline) using the plain netbackup agent(Not the
Domino agent), reformat the data drive and restored from tape. We get 30MB/Sec
with an offline backup.
We are planing on setting up an
Lotus archive server. Which should decrease the backup volume on our notes
mail server. The backup policy of the archive server has yet to be determined
but it will most likely be a monthly archive and then backup. Our notes
mail server would continue to backup with daily fulls.
I hope this points you in the right
direction.
