4.2 Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
Poor throughput performance

Try a new tape. A marginal tape can cause performance problems
due to bad spots on the tape requiring retries.

Backing up data that compresses poorly or is already compressed
will lower performance.

Check the size of the files. Small file size can impact performance.

Confirm that the backup application is utilizing block sizes of at
least 32KB, preferably 64KB. Refer to the backup application
documentation for details.

Check the network bandwidth from the host computer. If you are
backing up data over a network, consider comparing to a local ‐ only
backup.

Make sure the backup server has enough memory to handle the
bandwidth of the backup or restore.

Clean the tape drive using:
‐ OCP, see Section 3.1.7
‐ RMU, see Section 3.2.9.6
Cleaning
Cannot load the cleaning
cartridge

Make sure you are using an Ultrium universal cleaning cartridge.

Contact your service representative.
