Hi, We have several F330 in TIF, 2 of them have an enourmous number of small files: over 3.5M for one single volume. We have increase the maxfiles value to 4328504.
We have currently a significative degradation of backup performances on these 2 servers: backup are done at 1.5Gb, on both server, wheras we reach 5Gb/h for the 3 others.
Servers are all running Dataontap5.2.3, and are all identical. F330, 128Mb Ram, 24*4Gb disks,
I wonder what kind of fine tuning can be done to speed up the backup.
-- Regards, Pierre .

Exactly how are your backups running? What are the command lines and tape drives? Are the drives connected locally or remote?
Have you opened a call with technical support?
