RE: [Veritas-bu] Hardware compression not working

[Whelan, Patrick]

Title: Message

What is the indication that it is not compressing? Is it the same data as the test system?   Patrick Whelan NetBackup Specialist Architect & Engineering +44 20 7863 5243 Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most! - Unknown -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of WEAVER, Simon Sent: 18 April 2006 10:04 To: 'Carlisle, D Renee'; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] Hardware compression not working   Although the spec is the same, do any of the netbackup logs show why compression may not be running?     Regards Simon Weaver 3rd Line Technical Support Windows Domain Administrator EADS Astrium Limited, B32AA IM (DCS) Anchorage Road, Portsmouth, PO3 5PU Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Carlisle, D Renee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 17 April 2006 20:22 To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] Hardware compression not working Tape Library: IBM 3584 partitioned into production and test environment Operating System:  Solaris 9, Windows 2003, HP-UX 11i Netbackup: 5.1 mp3   Just upgraded from STK L700E LTO-1 library to a IBM 3584 LTO-2 library All of a sudden tape compression is not working on any flavor media server, but only in production. Our test environment is compressing data at a hardware level just fine.  Same OS, same NBU release, same Tape library, same tape drive drivers, same HBA cards, same firmware, same st.conf file on the Sun systems. Can anyone think of what we might be missing that would cause the production environment not to be using hardware compression while the test environment is?       Reneé Carlisle Sr. Systems Administrator 675 Basket Road Webster, NY 14580 Jer 29:11-13       The information contained in this message may be privileged, confidential, and protected from disclosure.
