How did you determine the bottleneck? Check the wait time in the bptm
log (grep for times or wait). We are getting 50MB/Sec using multiplexing
four backup streams to one LTO 2 tape drive.

NBU 3.4.1 Master:HP-UX 11i three-way service guard cluster Library:ADIC
scalar10k IBM Ultrium drives:20@LTO-1, 10@LTO-2 same cabinet. We have
just benchmarked our new LTO-2 drives and they are NO FASTER than the
LTO-1 drives. Are there separate tuneables for the new drives we are not
looking at? Buffer settings, something undocumented perhaps? We have a
3GB (bound) FC ethernet connection on the media server so I don't think
it's a network bottleneck, disk is XP-512 (rebadged Hitachi) screaming
fast disk. Tested same class on each type of drive, identical runtimes.
??? Thank you experts.
