Backup transfer rate 29700 KB
- 9 years ago
What's the total max, and total sustained (at peak load times, i.e. most backups running) aggregated ingest rate at the media server(s)?
Do you think you have a problem?
I have many backup clients run at those speeds. The reason... individually they're slow, and there's nothing a "backup admin" can do about it usually. But, when a backup admin has a hundred backup clients all each sending at 20000 KB/s - then a backup admin will usually start smiling.

Hi,
SDO is right. The speed of 30MB/s could be usually speed. So, is more steps for veryfing where is weak point of data transfer and follow more steps for increasing the speed.
Example: Job detail information about buffer's delay should be first prompt .... see https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH145578

Backup speed is usually subjective.
When reporting backup performance issue, always look at these:
- Data being backup (in size)
- Number of files within the data
(Millions of files takes longer than thousands of them) - Backup speed
(Note, you should have at least one to compare with. Current job .vs. job in the past; Current client .vs. another client backup by same media server in the same policy type etc.) - Changes in your environment, such as network, OS, applications etc.
If possible, test with a normal file transfer (take backup software out of the equation) and see if you experience the same speed slowness.
