Forget it!!!!!
The client I work for sent some staff off to a seminar to talk about LTO.
They were told of GREAT speeds and HUGE compression capability!
 
What they forgot to mention is that it all depends on:
 
Your LAN / WAN
Hardware Configuration
Amount of Data (small files are a killer)
Compression!
 
We don't get the specs we were quoted! I don't think many people do!

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup & LTO performance
 
Hi all
Currently we are doing testing of HP Ultrium Drives 
We are using SAN env. to perform backup 
Netbackup is configured on Solaris 8 & NBU 3.4 Datacenter
As per LTO specification 100GB/Hrs is minimum speed
But I am getting on 67GB/HRS in SAN env.
I did tunning Buffer Size Number of buffer and /etc/system shared memory
parameters
but no improvement
If any one achive above speed pls mail me configuration done @ your end
Thanx & Regards
