Good morning, I have a question concerning reported data transfer rates between the clients and the storage servers. All the above servers are connected to my NOC clients via a 1gb network. The servers are connected to several other clients via 100mb network and a 13mb VLAN.
Data rates for backups can vary widely. I have all clients running compression and the backup reports show compression results, varies of course based on the data type. I also have concurrency set to four, which is working. Some examples, 1gb network ============================= FD Bytes Written: 215,582,592 SD Bytes Written: 215,582,742 Rate: 2245.7 KB/s Software Compression: 62.0 % FD Bytes Written: 510,861,802 SD Bytes Written: 511,074,097 Rate: 577.2 KB/s Software Compression: 80.0 % FD Bytes Written: 77,243,969 SD Bytes Written: 78,145,766 Rate: 351.1 KB/s Software Compression: 84.4 % 100mb network ============================= FD Bytes Written: 3,486,750,378 SD Bytes Written: 3,488,784,689 Rate: 2391.5 KB/s Software Compression: 42.4 % FD Bytes Written: 3,486,750,378 SD Bytes Written: 3,488,784,689 Rate: 2391.5 KB/s Software Compression: 42.4 % 13mb VLAN ============================= FD Bytes Written: 35,879,089,133 SD Bytes Written: 35,910,549,602 Rate: 1385.2 KB/s Software Compression: 41.1 % FD Bytes Written: 9,803,307,103 SD Bytes Written: 9,809,416,473 Rate: 1273.0 KB/s Software Compression: 57.3 % FD Bytes Written: 434,184,031 SD Bytes Written: 434,204,782 Rate: 943.9 KB/s Software Compression: 82.0 % I'm not sure how to interpret the variation in rates. I don't think I have a problem, though I would expect the backups across the 1gb network to be far faster than they are. The backups across the 1gb network are all FreeBSD boxes, the backups across the 100mb and the 13mb VLAN are Windows and RedHat servers. The dir, and the sd clients are running on FreeBSD servers dedicated to that task, there are no other processes running. Any ideas where I might start looking? DAve -- Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos for other non-international holidays, but nothing for Veterans? Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
