Operating Systems AIX GTAR - new ways to faster backup - help required Post 302902729 by Bharath_79 on Thursday 22nd of May 2014 01:23:36 AM

Thanks for your response.

Yes, the splitting is helping to completing the job execution in less than 90 mins(otherwise would have taken 5+ hours). Each job run is consuming 10% CPU, overall 50% CPU for 5 runs, this is putting a lot of load on the server as the same server is shared by multiple branches. My question - is there any change we can do on the GTAR command I provided earlier for faster backup? Is there any faster alternative to GTAR? Any other suggestion pls?
