When I visit with customers, I always get asked about tuning NetBackup. Good news, I now have something better to pull out than the old "tune-a-fish" joke. The NetBackup 6.5 Backup Planning and Performance Tuning Guide is now available.

 

Enjoy.

Hi Tim, After I upgraded our

Hi Tim,

After I upgraded our NBU environment from 5.1 to 6.5, I found that the bpdm_dev_null touch file no longer useful. The test backup of disk storage units no longer use bpdm process, but bptm process instead. I opened a case with tech support and was told it's normal - the developers are moving to consolidate the bpdm and bptm processes into one to process all types (disk or tape) of backups.

So, do you know if there will be any updated dcoumentation, including a new Performance Tuning Guide, to be published to public soon?  I am eagerly waiting......
