[Veritas-bu] Fragment Size
2002-05-15 11:53:07
Hello Carlos
The Fragemnet size has affect if you are planning
to backup to disk storage unit.
It is the Max size of the file it will create to store
your backup. In the "old days" there is a limited of
a single large file of max 2G. If you lower the
Frag size to like 1G, and your backup is total 5G,
it will create Five, 1 G files in that specific
directory.
There is no frag size for tape storgae unit. (0)
It doesn't matter how big, just store to there.
And, yes you have to change/update your storage unit.
thx
Mike
