[Veritas-bu] HPUX catalog images are huge
2008-05-15 13:12:52
Greetings,
I just found out that a new 6.5.1 installation I set up in Singapore
filled up the database. The new database file system is 3x larger than
the 5.0 server this replaced. We did a new server installation and not
an upgrade migration so the database was clean.
When I went looking at the disk usage I found most of the disk space
being used by images on 3 hpux servers. Two of the servers are network
clients and the other is an Enterprise client backing up over the SAN.
The space used by the hpux Enterprise client is 5x the amount of space
used by a linux Enterprise client with roughly the same amount of
storage and used inodes. The linux box is probably the more heavily
used system and should have a similar rate of change, if not more, than
the hpux servers.
The sizes were roughly 9 gig for the linux client and 45 gig on the
hpux client. This includes compressing data after 15 days. The old
5.0 database file system was only a 40 gig file system and everything
fit using compression after 30 days. This means my image usage has
increased by about 6X
The only changes that I know were made between the old environment and
the new is that TIR with move detection was implemented. This was
applied to all clients and not just hpux. Other than that, everything
else is the same.
Any ideas why the hpux images are so large?
Thanks,
Jeff
