You don't specify if your query is about "all backups" or about NetBackup backups.
My average is about 95% - failures due to Change Controls on the servers - but the Netbackup retry configuration means that most of the time the second try works. Some failures due to not getting it configured correctly the first time. ------ Now this is with my new library - and the reason I have a new library is because my old one was failing too much - at that time my backup average may have been 80 to 85 % -----Original Message----- From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of briandi...@northwesternmutual.com Sent: Tuesday, January 12, 2010 7:27 AM To: VERITAS-BU@MAILMAN.ENG.AUBURN.EDU Subject: [Veritas-bu] Backup Success Rate I've been asked what I think the national average is for backup success. I recall hearing at one time that it was around 85-86% ... What do you believe this to be? TIA Brian This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential information of Northwestern Mutual.
