Increase Throughput with Symantec Backup Exec

[starragheckert]

Hello,

i have updated to the newest version (1.37.DB00000000.2922) but it is the same. On other machines with Backup Exec Agent on it, i can reach about 1,8 GB/min. So i don't think that the network is the bottle neck.

Also, if i am testing to read data from my storage server from different computers and count everything together i can reach a read performance from about 120 MB/s (7,2GB/min). So i also don't think that the sata disks are the bottle neck.

any other suggestions ?

mmm... U bond 2 1Gb NICs on ur DSS, and u have "- Symantec Backup Exec 11d on a HP ML 350 with a Single GB NIC" ! Gb in ur Backup will slow the performance.
U mentioned u get 3.1Gb/min in your iSCSI, any bonding there?
