Yes you need to purchase a license for the function to work :-)

Thanks. I've not used Flashbackup before so I'll have to read about it. The
utilization of the file systems I want to backup goes up and down
drastically (in a day) but it still worth giving it a shot. Is there a
separately licensed feature?

Khurram

Khurram,
Flashbackup will improve the performance (it caches the data as a sort of
snapshot then backs-up the snapshot so it's like a large file rather than
loads of small ones, or something like that....) but because it works per
volume, you need the space for the cache, which is at least the same size as
the volume you are backing-up.
It will improve performance for loads of small files but probably won't help
too much if they are on a huge volume and they take up a small % of the
space.
Cheers,
Tim

Subject: Spam: [Veritas-bu] NBU 6 Tuning for Small Files Backup
Hi All,
We have just migrated to a NBU 6 SAN based environment. We have a server
with a large number of small files (100k to 4MB) and its performing quite
poorly on SAN based backup (5MB per stream). Can anyone advise some tuning
parameters to improve this speed? The library is L500 with FC LTO3 drives.
Regards,
Khurram
