Question re NDMP backups, snap vault.
by Warkentin, Grant 04 Apr '06

04 Apr '06

Have a situation I do not fully understand. Have an NTFS volume - contains mostly home drives. This volume is snapvaulted to a nearstore. The nearstore is backed up via NDMP. Had to change the ACL at the volume level (boss's orders). Granted an existing group change access. I knew this would increase the size of the backups due to changing ACLs on the whole volume. What I don't understand is that the size of the incremental backups have not gone back to "normal" since I made the change. Thoughts?

RE: volume space & ndmp backups issues
by Glenn Dekhayser 04 Apr '06

I would think that a good portion of your backup time is the ndmp scan prior to the backup. Not sure anything will help with that. I would think the best way to accomplish backup in the shortest time is to do volume level snapmirrors, which don't care about files. But, barring that- Is your NDMP backup going to a FC tape library? Or SCSI-attached? Or Three way? Also, what onTAP are you running? Perhaps if you went with a large aggregate you'd be better off in all cases. Glenn (the other one) -----Original Message----- From: owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com [mailto:owner-toasters@mathworks.com] On Behalf Of George Kahler Sent: Tuesday, April 04, 2006 10:45 AM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: volume space & ndmp backups issues I have a space and a backup (ndmp) issues with one of my volumes that is dedicated for mail in 'maildir' format (one message per file). I'm looking for suggestions from people on alleviating the space issue and possibly suggestions on the ndmp backup of this volume. I'm thinking that these two might be related. filer#1:/vol/maildir (14 x 72 GB disks) 2 qtrees: ugrad (undergrad students) grad (grad students) backup: (nightly incr. on an average backs up about) 11GB , 6million files, runs for 7 hrs filer#2:/vol/maildir2 (14 x 72 GB disks) 1 qtree: emp (employees) backup: (nightly incr. on an average backs up about) 8GB , 5million files, runs for 1.5 hrs All 3 qtrees have the same 2 level directory tree structure (as suggested by NetApp) and a common hashing algorithm is used to create 'home directories' in these qtrees. The top directory contains sub-directories from 0-to-f. Each of those directories contain sub-directories ranging from 00-to-ff. So a persons home directory would be something like: /vol/maildir/grad/2/75/dummy I need more space for the filer#1:/vol/maildir volume. Q1: should I just expand the volume onto more disks ? having more spindles might speed up the backup ? Q2: should I separate the 2 qtrees (u/grad) into their own volumes (14 x 72 GB each) to give each more space ? having only one qtree to scan , ndmp might run that much faster ? Thanks for any suggestions. George
