Configuring number of streams for backup hosts
To enhance to the backup performance, you can configure the number of streams that each backup host can allow. You can improve the backup performance either by adding more number of backup hosts or by increasing the number of streams per backup host.
To decide the number streams consider the following:
The default value is 1.
Number of parallel streams is based on tunable parameters.
To update the hadoop.conf file for configuring number of streams
- Update the
hadoop.conf
file with the following parameters:{ "num_of_streams": number_of_streams }
- Copy this file to the following location on the backup host:
/usr/openv/var/global/
Note:
If you increase number of streams, update the maximum number of jobs per client, update the
stu
setting for multiple threads, and client timeout to avoid abrupt failures.
