Shawn,
=20
You mean 0.8 to 5.0 megabytes per second per client, right?
=20
Have you already performed a test backing up only one client with the =
backup server and drives
as idle as possible? In other words, do you know if this 5 MB/s =
throughput is limited by some
other resource bottleneck or this is the highest that netbackup client =
can send to the network?
=20
Thank you

[Veritas-bu] Netbackup clients with gigabit interface
=09
Hello
Is there someone on this list using gigabit interfaces on the client =
machines?
If so, what has been the backup throughput? Is there a special netbackup =
tuning
to improve performance?
Thanks
