I am only seeing 8-10MiB/s directly from RAM (/dev/shm) where if I write the same data to an LTO-3, I see regular speeds, 60-90MiB/s no problems? _______________________________________________ Verit
Having just gone through that (Albiet with Qlogic) this is what I did: Make sure the st driver is set to a reasonable buffer size (I did this in /etc/modprobe.conf): options st buffer_kbs=1024 echo "

Yeah yeah that was it I figured it after I sent the e-mail I was in a rush to get these new serves up and forgot about the SIZE_* vars, getting 100MiB/s per tape drive now no problems. ______________

Also for net_buffer_sz I use 1megabyte.. Also the one everyone forgets: NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS_RESTORE This definitely can speed up restores as well I use 32 for that too) ______________________________

Btw there was a good HP doc, 32 for the NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS and 256k for the SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS is the best. performance. Justin. _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist -
