If you backup server can handle the incoming IP traffic, and you can get
it to the drives......it will be great.
 
I found best aggregate performance for LTO2 and LTO3 with my GigE
clients @ MPX=2, and my 100Mb/s clients @ MPX=8.

        Hi all,

         

        How good/bad are LTO-3 drives when it comes to multiplexing?
Would we see great performance degradation if we set MPX to 4 on 1 LTO-3
drive and the run 4 simulations backups to that drive?

         

        I understand it can depend a lot on our clients as well...
