Re: [Veritas-bu] Which tape drive type for DLT7000 tape drives and NetBackup 3.4

Aleksandr,
Actually, using DLT or DLT3 won't change you performance. Are you sure that the tape was written the first time in DLTIV format? The first time you write the tape, you are setting up the format of the tape.

Dear NetBackup Gurus,
I have inherited installation of NetBackup 3.4 with Sun L1000 library and DLT7000 drives.
My tape drive type is set to DLT. At the moment I am getting 30-40G per DLTIV tape (with compression - using /dev/rmt/0cbn Solaris device
).
Looks like NetBackup 3.4 supports DLT , DLT2 and DLT3.
Should I change my tape drive to DLT3 ? Will I be able to get more data per tape?
Thank you, Aleksandr _______________________________________________
