BackupExec backup to disk file size setting
We are using BackupExec to make backups of our physicals. I’ve noticed that when BE does a backup to disk it breaks out all of the files into 4GB. I know how and where to change the size of that file. My question is more of a best practice kind of question. I’m backing these files up to tape after they are created and knowing that tapes work a heck of a lot faster writing large linear files would it be better to increase these files. Would it improve backup performance? Would it cause any unforeseen issues? I ask because I found this technote on Symantec and it gave me a little pause just before I pull the trigger. http:/
