5220 Limits

I have a 5220 ver 2.5.3 running Netbackup 7.5.0.6. I want to know of there is a way I can monitor my appliance to know if I am reaching limits with it in regards to amount of policys run at one time. I run into jobs running that fail and have been trying to run them at different times to find out if I have a bottleneck. But if there is a tool to monitor performance of my 5220 and tell me I'm running too hot, that would be great.

    The queue is still really big .. i guess as you have fired another off it is running at the moment but do show what --processqueueinfo shows to make sure one is running and one is queued.

    You need to just keep on top of this .. one one is running but one is not queued then use --processqueue to fire another off .. keep doing that until the queue comes down

    Are you sure all of your disks are OK - based on the size it doesn't look like it is running very fast

    Maybe it needs the contentrouter.cfg doing and a reboot to speed things up anyway?

    Thanks, It has been my thought that I have gradually overloaded this box. I am in the process of setting up another to off load some of the jobs. I appreciate all the help

    Not a problem at all - I would do the contentrouter change, reboot and then keep fireing off the processqueue until you see it come down to 4 or 5 digits .. then just keep an eye on it every few days

    If you keep it trimmed down it will run faster - also double check its status in the web gui to ensure it is not reporting any issues - a disk down or power supply down can have an adverse affect
