Hi folks,

I'm backing up 2 servers with Bacula, one with Windows 2016, the other one with CentOS. The hardware is described below. The Windows server is much more powerful than the Linux server in all respects, and should theoretically deliver data to the Bacula server at a much higher rate. But in reality, the Linux server delivers data about 7 times faster over the network, than the Windows server.

Is this completely normal, or should I start to check up the Windows server for problems?

Best regards,

Peter


Windows server (file server, RDP-server, Hyper-V host with 2 very lightly loaded VMs)
=====================================================================
Hardware: HP DL180 Gen9, Intel Xeon E5-2683v4, 48GB RAM, Smart Array P440 Controller, 6x SAS 1GB (7200 rpm, 12 Gb/s) in RAID5
Network: 2x 10GbE to HPE 1950 switch (LACP)
OS: Windows 2016 (build 1607)
Throughput to Bacula server: 23-Feb 08:52 MySd JobId 991: Elapsed time=00:26:09, Transfer rate=4.071 M Bytes/second


Linux server (plain file server with Samba)
==================================
Hardware: HP DL120 Gen9, Intel Xeon E5-2603v3, 8GB RAM, HP Dynamic Smart Array B140i SATA Controller 2x SATA 2GB (7200 rpm) in RAID1
Network: 2x 1Gb to HPE 1950 switch (LACP)
OS: CentOS Linux 7.5 (1804)
Throughput to Bacula server: 23-Feb 08:26 MySd JobId 990: Elapsed time=00:26:08, Transfer rate=28.29 M Bytes/second


Bacula server
===========
Hardware: standard motherboard with a 6-core AMD FX-6300 CPU, 4xSATA 8GB (7200 rpm) in RAID10
Network: Tehuti 10GbE NIC to ProCurve 2910al switch
OS: CentOS Linux 7.6 (1810)
Bacula server throughput to the RAID array: ca. 60 Mbytes/second

All switches are connected to our 10Gb/s optical network backbone.
