NetBackup cloud storage server bandwidth throttling properties
The following storage server properties apply to bandwidth throttling. The THR prefix specifies a throttling property. Use the correct cloud provider URL for the desired cloud vendor.
To change these properties, use the host properties Cloud Settings tab.
See Scalable Storage properties.
Table: Cloud storage server bandwidth throttling properties
Property | Description |
|---|---|
THR:storage_server | Shows maximum number of concurrent jobs that can be run for a specific cloud storage server. If configuring throttling for a media server that is a CloudCatalyst cloud storage server:
Default value: Not applicable Possible values: See the Description column |
THR:AVAIL_BANDWIDTH | This read-only field displays the total available bandwidth value for the cloud feature. The value is displayed in bytes per second. You must specify a number greater than zero. If you enter zero, an error is generated. Default value: 104857600 Possible values: Any positive integer |
THR:DEFAULT_MAX_CONNECTIONS | The default maximum number of concurrent jobs that the media server can run for the cloud storage server. If THR:storage_server is set, NetBackup uses THR:storage_server instead of THR:DEFAULT_MAX_CONNECTIONS. This is a read-only field. This value applies to the media server not to the cloud storage server. If you have more than one media server that can connect to the cloud storage server, each media server can have a different value. Therefore, to determine the total number of jobs that can run on the cloud storage server, add the values from each media server. If NetBackup is configured to allow more jobs than THR:DEFAULT_MAX_CONNECTIONS, NetBackup fails any jobs that start after the number of maximum jobs is reached. Jobs include both backup and restore jobs. You can configure job limits per backup policy and per storage unit. See the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I. Note: NetBackup must account for many factors when it starts jobs: the number of concurrent jobs, the number of THR:DEFAULT_MAX_CONNECTIONS per media server, the number of media servers, and the job load-balancing logic. Therefore, NetBackup may not fail jobs exactly at the maximum number of connections. NetBackup may fail a job when the connection number is slightly less than the maximum, exactly the maximum, or slightly more than the maximum. In practice, you should not need to set this value higher than 100. Default value: 10 Possible values: 1 to 2147483647 |
THR:OFF_TIME_BANDWIDTH_PERCENT | This read-only field displays the bandwidth percent that is used during off time. Default value: 100 Possible values: 0 to 100 |
THR:OFF_TIME_END | This read-only field displays the end of off time. Specify the time in 24-hour format. For example, 8:00 A.M. is 8 and 6:30 P.M. is 1830. Default value: 8 Possible values: 0 to 2359 |
THR:OFF_TIME_START | This read-only field displays the start of off time. Specify the time in 24-hour format. For example, 8:00 A.M. is 8 and 6:30 P.M. is 1830. Default value: 18 Possible values: 0 to 2359 |
THR:READ_BANDWIDTH_PERCENT | This read-only field displays the read bandwidth percentage the cloud feature uses. Specify a value between 0 and 100. If you enter an incorrect value, an error is generated. Default value: 100 Possible values: 0 to 100 |
THR:SAMPLE_INTERVAL | This read-only field displays the rate at which backup streams sample their utilization and adjust their bandwidth use. The value is specified in seconds. When this value is set to zero, throttling is disabled. Default value: 0 Possible values: 1 to 2147483647 |
THR:WEEKEND_BANDWIDTH_PERCENT | This read-only field displays the bandwidth percent that is used during the weekend. Default value: 100 Possible values: 0 to 100 |
THR:WEEKEND_END | This read-only field displays the end of the weekend. The day value is specified with numbers, 1 for Monday, 2 for Tuesday, and so on. Default value: 7 Possible values: 1 to 7 |
THR:WEEKEND_START | This read-only field displays the start of the weekend. The day value is specified with numbers, 1 for Monday, 2 for Tuesday, and so on. Default value: 6 Possible values: 1 to 7 |
THR:WORK_TIME_BANDWIDTH_PERCENT | This read-only field displays the bandwidth percent that is used during the work time. Default value: 100 Possible values: 0 to 100 |
THR:WORK_TIME_END | This read-only field displays the end of work time. Specify the time in 24-hour format. For example, 8:00 A.M. is 8 and 6:30 P.M. is 1830. Default value: 18 Possible values: 0 to 2359 |
THR:WORK_TIME_START | This read-only field displays the start of work time. Specify the time in 24-hour format. For example, 8:00 A.M. is 8 and 6:30 P.M. is 1830. Default value: 8 Possible values: 0 to 2359 |
THR:WRITE_BANDWIDTH_PERCENT | This read-only field displays the write bandwidth percentage the cloud feature uses. Specify a value between 0 and 100. If you enter an incorrect value, an error is generated. Default value: 100 Possible values: 0 to 100 |
