If all the NBU clients that use this SRT all have the same NET_BUFFERS
Setting, you can place this setting in the SRT. If your SRT is in
/export/srt and it's name is Sol8_NBU5_FST35 (for example), the NBU
directory you would put the NET_BUFFERS file into is:
/export/srt/Sol8_NBU5_FST35/Solaris_8/Tools/Boot/usr/openv/netbackup.
Creating an external procedure prob ably wouldn't work because the SRT is
mounted as read only during the restore. I suppose you could put a symbolic
link in there to point to a file in /tmp that yopu can write to, but the
method above will "hard code" the SRT to set the NET_BUFFERS to a certain
value. That is probably just fine unless you have clients that use
different values for this setting.

I'm running BMR 4.7.1(Mp1).
I hardcoded the switch to 100Mb FD. Solaris is seeing the link as 100Mb FD
on both the bmr client and the bmr/nb_master server.
I'm currently getting 70K/sec.
The server and the client have NET_BUFFERS setup.
Maybe i need to put in an external procedure for NET_BUFFERS before NB runs.
