Hi all, it looks like I can now backup to tape so I am on to the next question. I want to optimize Bacula for my environment and am looking for any tips.
Bacula server stats * Server type: Dell 2950 * Number of CPUs: 8 @ 2.33 GHz * Memory: 8 GB RAM * OS: Slackware 11 64 bit * DB: 64 bit MySQL 5.0.45 * I/O controllers: 2 x LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS1068 PCI-X Fusion-MPT SAS (2 SAS ports on each card) Tape loader stats * Dell ML6020 * Technology: LTO-4 * Number of drives: 4 * Interface: SAS Data information * There are roughly 23,000 - 25,000 compressed media files, with an average size of ~700 MB. The total amount of data that needs to be backed up is ~30 TB. These files are mounted via NFS to an Isilon storage array. The Isilon has a number of unused GigE connections so we're connecting eth1 of the Bacula server directly to the unused GigE on the Isilon and mounting the NFS over that interface. * We want to do incrementals each work day with a full on the last work day of the month. * All services are running on the Dell 2950 Miscellany * We have a 240 GB local reiserfs partition for spool/scratch. Are there any OS/app tweaks I could look at to squeeze as much performance possible out of my configuration? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
