no the 2 -3 meg /second was the ftp speed i was getting over the network
which wasn't too bad.

I got 4 DLT drives in  the Sun L1000.

Yes using multiplexing, but im currently running a test of this client on
its own and it has only backed up 205 meg in 1 hour.

Where is hardware compressions turned on or off? because someone suggested
turning software compression on .

I could do this for this class, although I do not do it for other classes.

Dave

what drives do you have???? 2-3 meg is not that great if you have dlt8000,
9840 or LTOs.

if you have DLT4000 or DLT7000 you should still get 4-5 meg per second.

Are you using multiplexing??

  Nic is set to full duplex, 100 meg adv_autoneg_cap = 0 ie autonegotiation
off.

  Network ftp test was good speed, about 2 - 3 meg a second.

  So stuck now. Going to try a manual backup of client while nothing else is
running. See if theres any difference.

  Cheers

  What's the NIC configuration?  Is it Auto-Negotiate?  Try setting it to
the speed of the switch you are attached to (ie 100 FULL)

    I have Netbackup 3.2 on solaris 8 with a sun L1000 storage unit.

    I have multiple clients backing up, but seem to have a problem with 1
client. It is taking like 7-8 hours to backup 14 gig. where as I have
another client taking about 5 hours to backup 70 gig . The latter is ok, but
the machine taking so long to backup 14 gig seems v extreme.

    Has anyone any ideas where to look why this might be doing this, or seen
this b4?

    cheers

    Dave
