Hi,
We're running Data Protector 6.2 on a Windows Server 2008 box and one of the backup jobs is a filesystem backup that backs up a drive on a virtual (vSphere 5) Windows Server 2008 box. Currently the job is backing up around 2TB of data taking approximately 26 hours and is currently using 6 LTO3 tapes which doesn't seem right somehow. The backup hardware is an MSL 6000 with two LTO3 drives. The backup only uses one of them. I've checked the tape drive it is using and it has hardware compression enabled.
Where else can I look to try and reduce the number of tapes this job uses?
Thanks.
James
