Jumbo Frames - Netbackup 7.5

Hello All,

I've enabled JUMBO FRAMES on my backup servers (win 2008 R2) through NIC teaming. Each server has 2 1G NICs configured through HP NIC teaming on the server and also etherchannel from the switch.

I've below 2 questions:

1. How to enable Netbackup application (both Master and Media) servers to be able to accept jumbo frames?

2. Also for backup clients do I need to make any changes to the Netbackup agent on the client to be able to send jumbo frames?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

Regards,

Adnan

  • From what I can tell, there is no setting in NetBackup, I did however find this technote

  • I agree, NBU has no settings for Jumbo frames. In fact it has very few setting that are network related as NBU sits above the network and basically only makes use of what it is given. Martin
