Backing up and Restoring Multi-Terabyte Data Sets

Overview Backup and restore performance have become increasingly important as data set size in high performance computing (HPC) environments has grown. SGI, LEGATO, StorageTek, Brocade, and LSI Logic Storage Systems undertook an effort to benchmark backup and restore performance using a storage area network (SAN) under conditions typical for HPC. A variety of scenarios using both image and file-by-file backup were tested to help customers better understand the strengths and limitations of each approach. This paper describes the results obtained from this test.
