This also looks wrong:
C:\Program Files\Veritas\Netbackup\db\config\NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS
132
Should be "32"
Is it a typo ???

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup 6.0 Backup Speed on HP Windows Blade
All, have a question about speed.
We are running the master server on a Windows C class HP blade with a dual
core 2.4 GHz Atholon CPU and 8 GBs memory. Has two FC ports connected to:
2 Two HP StorageWorks Enterprise Class ESL712 Tape Libraries
712 - Tape slots each library
12 - LTO3 Tape drives total
Backups are not that fast and I am questioning why. This is just a fast POC
test but I would like to tune and give the customer more valid numbers.
Any ideas would be great. My thoughts are that we don't have enough CPU's
to push the tape libraries but why such a vast difference betwen windows and
solaris backups? I am just puzzled. Help please.
Here are the values in the following files:
C:\Program Files\Veritas\Netbackup\db\config\NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS
132
C:\Program Files\Veritas\Netbackup\db\config\NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS_DISK
32
C:\Program Files\Veritas\Netbackup\db\config\NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS_RESTORE
64
C:\Program Files\Veritas\Netbackup\db\config\SIZE_DATA_BUFFER
262144
C:\Program Files\Veritas\Netbackup\NET_BUFFER_SZ
1049600
C:\Program Files\Veritas\Netbackup\NET_BUFFER_SZ_REST
525312
For Network Windows servers clients, we average just under 7 MB/sec
Same server configuration for Solaris 33 MB/sec
