Hi Peeps,
I have an N5220 (v2.0.3 - v7.1.0.8) that shows this is bptm log:
...
00:03:58.613 [3965] <2> read_config_file: using 524288 value from /usr/openv/netbackup/db/config/SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS_DISK
00:03:58.613 [3965] <2> io_init: using 524288 data buffer size
00:03:58.613 [3965] <2> set_job_details: Tfile (1691875): LOG 1392077038 4 bptm 3965 using 524288 data buffer size

00:03:58.625 [3965] <2> read_config_file: using 64 value from /usr/openv/netbackup/db/config/NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS_DISK

00:03:58.625 [3965] <2> io_init: child delay = 10, parent delay = 15 (milliseconds)
...
This N5220 has the following buffer files:
/usr/openv/netbackup/NET_BUFFER_SZ - file does not exist
/usr/openv/netbackup/db/config/NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS - file does not exist
/usr/openv/netbackup/db/config/NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS_DISK - file exists, and contains 64
/usr/openv/netbackup/db/config/SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS - file does not exist
/usr/openv/netbackup/db/config/SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS_DISK - file exists, and contains 524288
Questions:
1) Is it normal for bptm to use the _DISK value files if it doesn't find the tape value files ?
2) Will tape media written with the 512KB buffer size (above) actually be readable on a RedHat 5.9/10 media server that has a SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS of 256 KB ?
3) Are tapes written by a 7.1.0.8 (i.e. 2.0.3) N5220 appliance readable on a v7.0.1 media server ?
Thanks,
Dave.
