We have a NetApp filer that has a few TB of data made up largely of millions of small files (about 30 million or so) and we are using several NDMP policies to back up this data. The two main problems are length of time it takes to backup (we usually have 2-3 backups running all day every day)

We’ve been testing backup methods for millions of small files on NAS and DAS storage for YEARS here. Without exception, the best backup method has been NFS mount via a “proxy” client. I don’t manage the NetApp Storage, but we saw an increase from 10MB/sec to 17-19MB/sec when switching from NDMP
