Hi. We have a Netbackup 5.1 MP6 master/media server with 8 tape drives.
We run a large standard backup (1.5 TB data size w/multistreaming and no multiplexing) that uses all 8 of the drives during the backup. The backups run successfully and we have no problem in this area. We see an issue when we attempt to perform a full restore of the above mentioned data. When the restore process occurs, all 8 drives are populated and the restore starts and appears to be laying data down on the client. Because all 8 of the drives are in use, all other backup jobs sit in the queue and cannot run. Is there anyway to limit the number of drives the restore will use during the restore process? Is there a "touch" file or a configuration we could put in place to accomplish this? Thanks for the help. _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
