Hi All
Anyone got any real world experience on buffer settings:

scenarion:
Win2k3 San Media, connected to 2GB Fabric attached 8 LTO4 Drives.
Due to drive availability, Multiplexing onto one drive.

Main problem: One volume (1,7tb in size) takes over 4 days to fully complete.
Got the Tuning Guide and Technote 244602, but I tried some settings, only to find the backup would not even mount tape correctly.

So back to "no" settings at the mo.

Volume are generic files/folders, mixture of large and small sizes. But 1.7TB's in my view should be done quicker. Also Data is compressed.

Regards

Simon
