    Tuning LTO Drives to improve write speed

    Hi Ulf Thanks for the suggestion. I have now hard set the switch and also updated the etc/system file to force full 100. However I still get the same results, It's annoying because one of the servers that I plan to use the lto for already takes 30hrs plus to backup on a full backup. I am now...

Before doing this I need to look at cloning, we run Legato on a Sun E250 with 135 clients predominantly Sun with the odd HP and NT clients included. We use MTI raid in general (Vivant s200 1.7 TB) divided up into various...
