Hi,
We have setup a Commvault Media Agent to backup VMs using HotAdd transport mode.
The setup works but its average throughput is less than ideal.
The below is the setup of the Media Agent
- Directly FC connected to a LTO-8 tape library with 4 FC drives
- 16 CPU cores
- 32 GB memory
With the same above SPEC in our Netbackup environment, it can achieve an average throughput of 300MB/Sec, or 1TB/Hour.
However, this Commvault Media Agent could only achieve around 500 GB/Hour, which is only half of what its potential should be.
That being said, in Netbackup, we did increase its Number_Data_Buffers and Size_Data_Buffers to maximise its performance, so I’m wondering if there are similar parameters in Commvault that I can tweak to make it run faster ?
Thanks,
Kelvin
