Re: [Veritas-bu] Performance Issue with NB7 on Solaris 10

Good Day Mike, Is the backup with the errors a full backup? If it happens with full backups you might first look at the client os system. Are you using 32 or 64 bit os. I can not remember if solaris 10 still support 32 bit. If 32 bit you might have some addressing issues. Check the os logs

Well NDMP logging is done differently, so you may want to search for the technotes for that - it will likely give more information. However, I've heard that it can produce an enormous amount of logging. I've not tried remote NDMP any time recently, so I can't claim real-world experience. I

Just a note that you shouldn't use the Solaris kernel settings for Sol 10 because the default value is much bigger. Eg shmsys:shminfo_shmmax On Solaris 10 it will default to 1/4 of physical memory which is pretty good on all the new boxes running Sol 10. -Original Message- From:

Unless I am missing something here IPMP only increases throughput on the outbound side of the server. Media servers are typically bringing data in from the network. Without further fiddling, that is correct. If you could get some clients to use one IP address for the media server and other
