#1 You can't multiplex NDMP backups, so you need multiple tape drives to
run multiple parallel streams.
Also, you need to increment the maximum jobs per client in your
master's global attributes to a value greater than, or equal to the
number of streams you want to run concurrantly, and finally,
Was there any response to the original question here? Im interested in
testing network performance from a client using netbackup.

Just an update, seems to be a drive issue. I was able to write 160GB image
to another tape drive using the same tape.
I updated the drive firmware, power cycled the server and all the tape

I'll be placing a service call on the drive today.

I added the client to some policy on the Windows server. After that, I selected

I had an issue a few years ago on solaris 8. During the nightly backup
window, the master would lose contact with the library so as long as a
backup didn't need another tape, things would keep running, however,
once another tape was required, then I was in trouble . . . I had to
reboot the master
HP when it sent notification for the OS patches also sent notification
for the need to update Java including a TZupdater tool for HP-UX.
Surprising they'd have a way to do the update and Sun who wrote Java
wouldn't.

Sun distibutes Java separately from the Solaris OS patches - - you need to
go to java.sun.com and download the newer JRE / JDK and install it. It's
actually very easy to do.

It's probably because Java is advertised as being platform independent.
If you had a compile for an OS that didn't do DST (OS400 maybe?) it
would be nice if the Java did. However for most of us it's a bit of a
pain. I wasn't even aware of this Java TZ stuff until we got the notice

I'm still waiting to see if we're contacted by an application vendor
(Windows), but heavily reliant on java. That said, I tried to run the
tzupdate on a Windows box (with java console), but it blew up looking
for zipfile or jarfile stuff. Haven't looked any further.
Thanks for bringing this
Good point. I used to admin an AS/400 way back in the day (V1R3) and I
had to remember to reset the clock at the beginning and end of DST. I'd
hope that by now IBM would have made that automatic.

Depends on the size of the disk. you may well be best to configure VSP for a
specific volume.
Also found that VSP does slow the backup process down, and in many cases,
still did not capture the open files correctly.
