Tape Drive Throughput

Running Netbackup 7.5.6 on a 5220, I have LTO6 Tape Drives, Is there a way to figure out what throughput I'm getting with my tape drives when backing up to them?

Run the All Log Entries report in the NetBackup Admin Console - every time a fragment is wrotten to tape it lists it along with its throughput

So if it is a duplication is will say successfully written image abc123 (copy 2) of 334445kb at 5400kb/s

(or words to that effect!)

Try the bptm log. It will report kb/s write speed. So look for something like total Kbytes 365426 at 12843.670 Kbytes/sec.
