Hi Bill,
Thanks for the clarification, that makes sense. As for my backup media
it's disk for now. I gave additional information as much as i could on my
setup for throughput.
Thanks.
Dave.

Hello,
I was running some network backups and am getting some discrepancies.
I was wondering if this was something to worry about. The backup server
is a freebsd6 machine running bacula 1.38.5 via ports, the client in
question is a windows xpsp2 box running bacula 1.38.5 also.
The error came from a discrepancy from the client xp box. The backup
terminated ok without warnings, yet the fd and sd bytes written values
differ, should i be concerned? Again there were no warnings from either
server or client.
FD Files Written: 41,974
SD Files Written: 41,974
FD Bytes Written: 3,143,336,400
SD Bytes Written: 3,150,666,604
Rate: 432.4 KB/s
This is quite normal. The FD sent 3,143,336,400 bytes of files;
including file marks and other overhead, the SD actually wrote
3,150,666,604 bytes to tape.
And those boxes are on the same subnet, is that a good transfer rate?
Both boxes have 100 megabitt nics, full duplex, and a 100 megabitt
switch.
I would consider that rather poor throughput across a 100FD network.
But, on the other hand, I don't know what your storage device is. It's
impossible to tell from that data alone where your bottleneck lies.
