Sam: out of interest, what is your NAS box here? /DMc
-----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sam Sheppard Sent: 17 March 2010 18:02 To: [email protected] Subject: [ADSM-L] NDMP file level restore We are testing NDMP/TOC in TSM 6.1.3.1. Backup is very fast and appears to work very well. Restore of and individual file is a different story altogether. We restored one 90MB file out of a backup of a 120GB volume with no differentials. The restore took about 30 minutes. I'm trying to figure out why such poor performance on file level restore. My initial assumption is that since the backup is at the block level and the NAS file system is write-anywhere, the blocks for an individual file could be scattered all over the tape (TS1120). Anyone have any experience/suggestions with file-level NDMP restore? Thanks Sam Sheppard San Diego Data Processing Corp. (858)-581-9668
