I think the spec is acceptable, providing you have additional SAN Media
Servers, or if poss, a little more RAM and an extra CPU to help :)
1 CPU for every 2 LTO3 drives? Hmm..... so my client running 2 core processors
with 10 LTO4 drives is underpowered?? Even though the backups are lightning
fast :)

For reference.

_Server/281842.pdf
The minimum config in the matrix for a master not doing any client backups
starts at 4 CPU.
Since you want this to be a master/media, add, in addition to the "master
server" power, the specs for a media server.
1 CPU for OS and Netbackup, 1 CPU per Gig E connection, and 1CPU for every 2
LTO3 drives.
Looks like you're SEVERELY underpowered.
