Hi, I am trying to get a feel for how long it might take check all the files for backup in a NAS (Network Attached Storage) file system as we have several NAS file systems with over 1,000,000 files in each. These file systems are currently being backed up using Legato and take forever!
In the testing I have done so far, I have run an incremental backup to clear all outstanding files, and then run an incremental again so that I can get a reasonably clear picture of how long it takes just to check the file system for backups. Of the combinations I have tested so far, the results are as follows RS/6000 local disk 1500/second Windows 2000 local disk 800/second Windows 2000 NAS 130/second UNIX NAS ???????????????? Can anyone give an approximation of ??????????????? Thanks Andrew Finlaison DBA University of Wollongong Phone 02 4221 3828 / 0413 041 722
