As I'm sure many others can attest, SSO for NDMP works quite well.

Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP NetApp vfiler & millions of files...






Hi,

I have the same now, but with EMC Celerra, I tested with multistreaming 
and multiple backup policies for different mount points, I also created 
multiple mount points on the filer instead a giant one. I can see it 
streams better, now I want to team the nics on the media backup server and 
see how it works. Also EMC and Symantec recommend to have 6.5.3 patch 
level as it has many fixes for NDMP. Also, you might consider to use fiber 
attach your filer to the tape library, per Symantec, you should be able to 
use SSO as well.

Hope it helps.

Regards,
Boris

Hi,

We are trying to backup a file system containing hundreds of thousands of 
folders and millions of files.

This data has recently been transferred from a windows 2003 box to a 
vfiler running on a NetApp fas 3020. We are using NDMP from filer to LTO4 
and getting 6300 KB/Sec.

I know its the amount of files causing the issue, the only thing we can 
think of is robocopying the data to a LUN and backing up a snapshot of it. 
Seems long winded to me.

Is there any way to increase the backup performance?


Cheers.
