I need a solution
Hi,
Our current disk to tape backup rates are running at a steady 1900MB/min, I was hoping to get a little more than this. We are using the BackupExec 3600 appliance (yes I know theres a seperate forum group for this but it doesn't seem very active so would rather it stays here).
I believe these are the BackupExec 3600 appliance specs:
2 x RAID 1 SSDs for the OS
4 x RAID5 7.5k for the dedupe
6 GB/seconds SAS host bus adapter
Our tape drive is a HP 1/8 GT Tape Autoloader connected directly into the SAS connection of the appliance.
Is there anything we can do to try and increase the speeds? Our preveious backup tape was a LTO4 connected to U320 SCSI and was sometimes not much slower than what we are running at the moment. Thanks
