Hi Hesham,
What are the H/W specs of the media servers ? How many drives each ? What
type of NICs ?
What sort of network ? How much data are the clients pumping out ? Do you
have any multiplexed together ?
It's hard to get these drives going fast (LTO3s and T10Ks) unless it's on a
test bench, duping tapes, using DSSUs or fat network pipes, grunty servers
and clients that stream well. I don't know anyone who has LTO3s and T10Ks
running consistently at full speed.
Regards,
Dom

Hi All
I have a question regarding LTO3 performance
>From the NBU Administrative console I see the speed between 5000 KB - 15000
KB
My environment is as follow
Netbackup Version : 5.1 MP4
OS: Solaris 8 on All Master and Media servers
Library : STK L700 with 10 LTO3
Files
NET_BUFFER_SZ is setup to 131072 on Client and Media Server
SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS 131072 on all Media servers
NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS is setup 64
We do in-line copies ' two ' and our multiplexing number is 15 and 20 for
some policies
Do you think if I increase these numbers in NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS,
SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS it might increase the overall performance
Best Regards
