Hi all.
=20
it's been years since I've worked with NDMP much (NB 3.x and Auspex file
servers), with 32 and 64 gig filessytems
so I'm re-learning everything with NetApp, NB5.0 and TB+ filesystems,
and refreshing lots of old memories.
=20
seems a restore, even of a couple files from a 600+ Gig FS backup (home
directoy FS) takes HOURS....like 5-7 hours.
=20
The progress monitor shows the tape mounted, positioned, etc, then sits
there for hours with no KB/s or KB restored reported, then, bam, it's
done.
=20
this more or less normal?
=20
If so, do you folks have SLAs that account for this kind of timeframe
for restores?
or do you you snapshots exclusively for restores of user data and only
use tape for DR?
=20
