Re: [Veritas-bu] D2D or Tape Libraries

I ran a test backup to Disk and found that the backup took over 7 hours. when running the same backup to tape, it took 5 hours!

The files was a mixture of small profile type files and folders.

So not too impressed with the speed. Unless some tuning can be done ?

Watching this thread I have to put in my 2 cents.

One of the key points is having to have copies offsite.

So our search of de-dup has to include replication to the dr site where we have a live master, and we need to be able to mount that replicated copy on to that master to be able to do restores.

This would be a very good time for you to investigate utilizing client side de-dupe, Pure Disk, Media Server De-Dupe, one of the NBU appliances (which have storage built in), or a Data Domain.

or a Quantum ;-)
