Hi folks, I've been running copy jobs for a couple of months now and I'm wondering why they vary so much in speed. Sometimes they zoom along just fine around 60MB / sec, at other times transfer rates never go beyond 5MB / sec. Only one copy job is running at a time.
We're copying from a disk based online volume to an lto5 tape drive with 24x changer (HP), the server doesn't do anything besides backup (120 clients). During copy jobs, no other jobs are running. Maybe I'm mistaken about copy jobs, but isn't this just a "simple" byte-by-byte copy? Anything else going on behind the scenes that I'm unaware of? All the best, Uwe Bacula 5.2.6 compiled from source on centos6 64bit btw ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
