After reading the HP LTO3 manual it looks like they recommend 256 KB.
We're setting some up now so will publish how it goes.

I was using 262144 for LTO2s and they were reaching 43MB/s on local SCSI
attached drives. I'm guessing LTO3s would be around the 393216 to maybe even

Yup. Rebooted the jukebox (PX510), and rebooted the master server just
for good measure. No barcode rules or media id generation rules.
I'm pretty dumbfounded.
Doing a search for 00Q100 on my PX510 web admin console (for both
barcode and media id) gives me nada. Searching for Q1 tells me
Have you checked your barcode rules to make sure no one has made any
changes?

Great idea Paul! The bulk of the data is going to be shared out to a single
NFS server. So the plan was to test NFS --> Linux Server --> Media. If I can
remember correctly, making that Media server a SAN media server would only run
$2500 or so which is about 25% the cost of NDMP. We're a mi
Also, since you're effectively changing the storage unit allocation, you
*might* have to do a:
bpschedreq -read_stu_config
bpschedreq -read_stunits
Unfortunately, all three of these re-read operations do not work a large
percentage of the time in versions below 6.0.

I'm unsure where the Linux box comes into play.
If the appliance presents an NFS share, and you're going to back the
appliance up via NFS, at the very least, I would mount the share ON one
of your (*nix) Netbackup servers.
If I were adding in a net new linux box to mount the share, (just

Just NFS shares, no CIFS from your NAS? How much data do you share to
your hosts (NFS shares to clients)? What type of library are you using,

I was planning on adding this option and then run the restore and once
the restore was running commenting out that line and force the master to

For restoring that is all you need.
For backing up you'd need to point your policy to the storage unit
associated with the other media server.
Also some operations will be slow due to timeouts trying to connect to
the media server that is down even though you're not really directing
traffic
We have done something similar ...
NDMP Enviroment: EMC NSX - holding gazillion of files
NFS - HPUX 11.11 - holding gazillion of files (gazillion is a technical
term there :) )
There is no question that NDMP is the way to go. With a bit of tuning
and some trial and error, we are pushing 80+ M
I did not really test that but I have some mixed environments NFS and

On average my ndmp is faster at least 10 to 20 times depending on kind
of data being backed up.

So does this Storagetek appliance do snapshots?
I'm not familiar with this piece of equipment but if it's similar to a
NetApp appliance then you might want to consider both disk and tape
backups.

I dont what kind of support contract you have, but you need to be able to talk
