Any suggestions on how to improve DB backup performance ?
Doing a FULL DB backup of our 15GB ADSM (yes, not TSM YET. Hoping to
convert to 4.1.3 RSN !!) server, sometimes takes 4-hours.
Since I read a previous message about someone having a 52GB DB, I was
wondering how long it takes to backup that much DB since my meager DB takes
sooooo long ? Note, there is no "operator delay" since it goes to a 3494
ATL, using 3490E drives. I was thinking about moving it to 3590 MAGSTAR but
wasn't sure if it would make much of a difference since the only real
change would be reduction/elimination of tape mounts (currently uses
9-cartridges). Since it is a robot, this would save a few minutes at most.
I have tried increasing the BUFPOOL value (from 32MB to 80MB) with little
noticable improvement. I still haven't reached/sustained the illusive 98%
Cache Utilization !
Since the ADSM address space working set size has often exceed 110MB, I was
wondering what was reasonable (or expected) for thise size DB. How much
further should I increase the BUFPOOL value ?
