Hi, If you have fibre connected LTO drives, one really simple way is to connect to the web console of the switch and monitor the performance of the ports on the switch. This isn't easily automatable, but it is a very accurate representation of what you are seeing in terms of throughput.

Are you just going by the activity log? Thanks! Shawn >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/08/03 1:34 PM >>> >I'm curious as to what kind of MB/sec throughput people are seeing with TSM and LTO drives. It varies drastically for us based upon the objects being moved, of course. 10-15MB/s / drive is normal for us overall. >How many MB/sec does a migration process produce in your environment? We achieve about 12-14MB/s per drive when performing migration. >Does anyone have any DB's streaming directly to LTO and some figures? Appreciate any feedback Yes, our Exchange boxes stream nicely at about 15MB/s per drive. HTH!
