okay network is one I left out, but I don't find that to be a problem. It rarely goes above 30mbit. Our setup is a single box w/ Xeon dual core 2.4ghz x 2, 2x300gig 10k scsi (raid 1) drives and 4gig memory, Debian 5.0, gigabit ethernet.
We struggle to backup 4 servers each night, 453gigs / 7,807,318 files. Backup window is 9pm to 9am, and we just fit inside that each night. We do incrementals 6 nights a week and 1 full per week. I'm thinking of upgrading the box to raid5 array with 15k scsi drives, more memory and a quad core cpu. It's difficult to know what is enough though.. On Mon, Jul 6, 2009 at 4:27 PM, Jeffrey J.
