I'm wondering about server load during backups. Netbackup 6.5.1. If I kick off a Differential-Inc backup of a standard Unix File system, where does the load of calculating the differences between the last Differential Backup or Full Backup exist? Given the load on my master server, I'd imagine it's the Master Server that sits, and calculates the differences. Is that a wrong assumption?
I'd also imagine that the load of a Full Backup of a Standard Unix File System is then less CPU intensive than a Differential-Inc Backup. It's just copying one file at a time, no differential calculations to make. And since Netbackup uses RMAN for Oracle backups, the load of backing up an Oracle DB is more so on the Media Server / Client than on the Master server. Full or Differential. Any thoughts? -- Mike Sponsler Northrop Grumman Information Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
