Hello, I am new to Bacula and so far i really like it.
I am testing Bacula and at the moment i am trying to backup to disk. Everything seems to be working fine except that the file transfers from the client to the server are not very fast. The server's interface is a 2Gbps card, the client's is 10/100mbps, the ports on the switch where they both connect is 10/100 so i know i am not going to get anything faster than 100mbps. However, i am not getting anywhere near that. I found out i was using the default "Maximum Network Buffer Size" so i changed that to 100mbps or 13107200 bytes, however, when the backup runs it only gets to 1489510.4 bytes per second. If i copy the same amount of data between the same server using "scp" i get 11MB/s. Is there anything i can check...? Thanks, bellow are the relevant config files. bacula-dir.conf Job { Name = test1 Type = Backup Level = Incremental Client = client1-fd FileSet = "wintest" Schedule = "WeeklyCycle" Storage = File Messages = Standard Pool = Default Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/%c.bsr" Priority = 10 } Client { Name = client1-fd Address = client1.domain.com FDPort = 9102 Catalog = MyCatalog Password = "asdfsda" # password for FileDaemon File Retention = 14 days # 30 days Job Retention = 1 months # six months AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files } Storage { Name = File Address = server.domain.com SDPort = 9103 Password = "asdf" Device = FileStorage Media Type = File } bacula-sd.conf Device { Name = FileStorage Media Type = File Archive Device = /bacula-staging/backups LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media Random Access = Yes; AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it RemovableMedia = no; Maximum Network Buffer Size = 13107200 AlwaysOpen = no; } +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by rvent...@h-st.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
