What are people doing for transaction log backups? We have an environment with close to 1500 servers (mix of physical and virtual,) have jobs running 24x7, and have recently started using the SQL Agent instead of the dump and scoop method. Our DBA's insist on running a transaction log backup on all SQL databases every 10 minutes. Previously they dumped to a CIFS share that was scooped weekly. Now with converting to the agent, we've added close to 600 jobs per hour with this configuration, and it seems to be causing some additional scheduling issues. It seems excessive to me, and array based snapshots are not an option. Any tips/tricks/suggestions that could be shared regarding this would be beneficial.
I tried to find a SQL Agent best practice guide, but all I kept stumbling across was an HP version.
