[Veritas-bu] Netbackup Master server hardware - Solaris






good morning,
 
I am Interested in asking the community thier opinions for what hardware 
platform works best for master only netbackup servers.
 
We currently are running our master in a master media configuration (with 
two additional media servers) and it is time to refresh the master server 
hardware.
 
I am going to be performing some tests to benchmark some of the hardware 
we may use for a replacement master only server. for this i am also 
interested in some of the tests i can run to give an indication of the 
server performance.
I was thinking of restoing the catalogue to the test hardware and timing 
some of the more intensive commands such as bpimmedia and bplist. does 
anybody have other or perhaps even better suggestions ?.
 
I'll post results as i complete tests tests if anybody is interested.
 
At the moment it looks like i'll get to test the Sun M300, T5220 and one 
of the new Intel Nehalem systems.
 
Thanks
 
 
Adam M.
