Re: [Veritas-bu] NB 6.5.3 slow response for administrative tasks

I have noticed some degraded performance when updating policies, when compared to the 5.1 GUI. We're talking another couple of seconds, but it is noticeable.
I have also noticed the same long delay (this could be a few minutes if there are tens of policies) in activating/deactivating the policies, but figure that's worlds better than doing it all manually.

I have not done any performance tuning, but accept the slightly increased delays. If you're seeing longer times than that, I would say there is some kind of issue, otherwise it's probably normal behavior.

Subject	[Veritas-bu] NB 6.5.3 slow response for administrative tasks

Greetings, I'm having some performance issues with various administrative tasks in NetBackup 6.5.3.1 on a new master server and fewer than 20 active backup policies. My master server is a Dell PE2950 server with 16GB memory running Redhat 4 update 7. What I'm seeing is really poor response when adding or changing backup policy specifications. Sometimes to update the backup windows via the Admin console, it takes longer than 2 minutes - even when there is no other activity. I've also seen significant pauses when activating/deactivating policies via the command line. Are there system or database parameters that can be set to optimize response? What worries me is that if I'm seeing this lousy response on an unloaded master server, what will I see when it's busy backing up a couple hundred clients? --Kathy _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu AT mailman.eng.auburn DOT edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
