First off, NBU 6.0MP5, HP-UX.

 

I have a master/media server with an STK L180 library and an Scalar24
library. The L180 is used for "normal" backups. The Scalar24 (which has
only 2 LTO-3 drives) was added as part of a special project to migrate
several clients to a different location. Basically backup those clients,
send the tapes to new location and restore the data.

 

In an effort to increase the data through-put, I added 2 additional GB
network connections. So now I have the following interfaces:

 

Jac01.x.x.x  Gigabit (original interface for non migrating clients)

Jac01v1.x.x.x  Gigabit

Jac01v2.x.x.x  Gigabit

 

How can I best configure NBU to have as much data as possible stream to
the 2 LTO-3 drives in order to speed up the backups? I know I could
create an STU on each interface and set the policies to use them, but
that would seem to just make the jobs wait as other jobs tie up the
drives. What about using the "specified network interface" for the
clients? If I do that, how can I verify that the data is actually moving
on the new interfaces instead of the original?

 

Help?

 

 

Thank You,
