Hi *SM-ers!
One of my customers is complaining about the backup performance of the
daily DP for SQL Server. The tdpsql.log shows that performance is 15
Mb/sec. which looks very fine to me for a host which is connected to a
100 MB LAN, but the customer showed me the TDP log from December last
year which shows a daily throughput of 25 Mb/sec and more!!!
My only guess is that this was caused by compression (how else can you
get more than 10 Mb/sec through such a connection) but I would like to
see what the client is doing.
I was thinking about starting a client trace (at the DP level or at the
API level?) to find this answer.
What tracing parameters should I specify to see the time it takes for
the client to get the data, compress it and send it over the network? I
do not want to much detail, since the backup runs during the night for
several hours, so a too detailed trace will grow very large...
Thank you very much for any hints or tips in advance!
Kindest regards,
Eric van Loon
