Symptoms
Customer measured archiving performance and found that his T10000D drives performed well below their native I/O rates. He was expecting somewhere up to around 250MB/sec but found many sam-arcopies completing at or below 100MB/sec.
We could measure these times by dividing the time into the number of bytes written, as shown in entries like the following, found in the /var/opt/SUNWsamfs/devlog/[tape drive eq id] files. The example below equates out to a roughly 100MB/sec arcopy:
It was also observed that with the Distributed I/O feature in use, the sam-arcopies handled by their QFS clients are much faster and can write at the data rates expected for their T10000D drives.
