[Veritas-bu] Media server load balancing issue

2011-07-14 Thread pranav batra 

Hello Geeks,

We have a setup here with one master and 11 media servers all solaris on 6.5.6
OS is : Solaris10.


We have 3 media servers used for disk based backups using advanced disk by 
netbackup.
We have ZFS pool created on 9,10 and 11 media servers and then using them as a 
advanced disk.

Now the issue is ,We have put media9 and media11 in storage unit group with 
load balancing issue ,but this thing is not working properly as most of the 
backups going on media9 not on media11.

We have made the changes as tried to use round-robin and priortised but the 
issue is still there.

Our media11 is more powerful with 64 GB ram as compared to media9 with 16gb ram 
but still the backups not going on media11.

Any idea/advise to resolve this./


Pranav

Have you tried taking media9 out of the storage group to see if it works to
media11 at all. This might give some more clues. Is media11 the first entry
in the storage group?
