NetBackup Accelerator track log

[pwakchaure]

Does the number of files and the file size matter the track log file size?

[RamNagalla]

yes it is.... track log size is depends on number of file and utilization and also the file changes...

the higher the file modification higher the size will be.

The size of the track log is a function of number of files and size of the files in the file system. The size of the track log does not increase with increase in data change rate in the file system.

Glad you found your answer.

Please remember to come back and tell us how this is working for you in real life as @Jim-90 never provided feedback to his 2015 post.

Track log size is not changing after doing the multiple backups and variable change rate.

I abandoned using accelerator because nothing improved.  The Netapp volume was about 15 TB with about 100,000,000 files.   We split up the volume to make everything a bit better.
