Great. I would say that is your baseline, and that is just about what I get out of 15x1TB SATA disks in a Raid-5 at 8 streams. What kind of Raid controller are you using? What kind of block sizes on that raid volume? What kind, and how many physical disks are in your raid set? Is this a SAN

[Veritas-bu] Allow Multiple Data Streams creating thousands of jobs!

2010-06-25 Thread Brandon35
I have a policy with Allow Multiple Data Streams enabled. It's backup selection is about 15 directories (SAN attached). e.g. C:\dir1\* C:\dir2\* C:\dir3\* C:\dir4\* .. I have Limit jobs per policy set to 6, so I figured NBU would only allow 6 at a time. But it tries to create thousands (a job

When you run this, how many jobs are active? You get multiple jobs because you are using wildcards. This is the behavior I would expect. If it is anything other than 6, then you have likely hit the MPX limit you set on your drives or you have hit the limit set by number of jobs allowed per

2010-06-25 Thread Jonathan Dyck
Limit of jobs per policy is how many streams can be active at a time. The way you've setup your backup selections will create a single stream for every level below c:\dir# Just remove the wildcards and you'll probably have what you're looking for. From:

That sounds right. Wildcards are great, but they can clutter up your activity logs with lots of jobs. Since each job is an image, you'll have a lot of backup image entries to sort through when doing restores or duplications. -Jon From: Brandon35
