FYI,
We have NT4, 1Gb RAM.
Fibre Channel Disks
Tape Drive is a Dell (Quantum) DLT7000 connected via SCSI.
Using Backup Exec.
Our total backup and verify is 17.6Gb which takes 126 mins (2.4MB/sec but
includes verify).
If I consider just a 1 drive backup only (ie no verify) we backup approx 5
Gb at 541.3 MB / min = 9 MB/sec.
(This is using Hardware compression).
HTH,

Hello list. I have a brand new database that is around 200 GB in
size. Our tape backup solution which was supplied by the hosting
company is only giving me bewteen 6 and 7 MB per second . A full cold
backup can take 8 to 10 hours at this rate.
I looked at the specs for the tape library they sold us and it says
15MB/sec or up to 30 MB/sec compressed. What gives? The storage is
SCSI 3 and also some Fibre channel so I don't think the drives are the
bottleneck.
What kind of numbers are other people getting?
The system
NT 4
4GB RAM
400 GB storage (mix of SCSI 3 and fibre)
Oracle 8.1.6.3.0
~ 200 GB in Oracle data files
Tivoli Storage Manager
IBM robotic tape library (via fibre)
