Re: [Veritas-bu] Need some suggestions

Before we upgraded to disk to disk we used multistreaming on our 5TB of Windows file servers (two separate servers.) I think we ran one stream per disk and we got about 2-3MB/sec per stream so we totaled a respectable 10MB/sec. Flashbackup is another way to go.

The setup…

Client:

Windows 2003 Svr

6 TB of very small files…Word, Excel etc

NBU environment

6.0 MP4

all Windows…media and master node.

LTO3 drives SAN Attach (FC)

Mutlistreaming enabled

1GB isolated network

Multiplexing enabled, and don’t laugh it is set to 20…I know I know hopefully I’ll never need to do a full system restore.

I’ve isolated all policies from the media server that handles this clients backup request.

And yet my full backup is running anywhere from 1.5 – 2 days, my transfer rate to tape is running around 2000 KB/sec…horrible

What else can I do to help speed this up?

Thanks
