If it's on 100MB or 1G ethernet, then it's rather slow.

Also, seems to write these files out (restore sychron.) why can't it restore different datafiles in parallel? - stupid question huh? -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 8:46 PM To: Stankus, Paula G; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' SELECT SID, SERIAL#, CONTEXT, ROUND(SOFAR/TOTALWORK*100,2) "% complete", SUBSTR(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'HH24:MI:SS'),1,15) "Time now" FROM V$SESSION_LONGOPS WHERE OPNAME like '%restore%'; . showed all 100% complete but msglog from RMAN shows it is truly still running. -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 8:40 PM To: Stankus, Paula G; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Also found on monitoring performance of RMAN jobs: Note:144640.1 on Metalink -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 8:36 PM To: Stankus, Paula G; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Found this white paper: http://otn.oracle.com/deploy/availability/pdf/rman_performance_wp.pdf Anything better? -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 8:33 PM To: Stankus, Paula G; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' This is what I have set on my target database: ----------------------------------- ------- ------------------- backup_tape_io_slaves boolean FALSE tape_asynch_io boolean TRUE Version 8.1.7.4 database and RMAN catalog - 32 bit Networker MML Using RAID 1+0 Solaris 2.8 -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 8:28 PM To: Stankus, Paula G; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Okay - from my reading you don't need to have multiple tape io slaves if you are using asynch. I/O. Again, best document for perf. tuning database restores using RMAN would make mucho difference. Read old note about someone doing an analyze on the RMAN catalog tables to improve performance of restore. I think it has something to do with how quickly it finds the file on tape and writes to disk. -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 8:25 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Seems to be taking awfully long to read files from tape and write to disk. I allocate multiple tape channels like I do for the backup which only takes about 45 minutes. Does not seem to be spawning multiple sessions. Do I need to change parameters on my init.ora file to use multiple tape io slaves to see this. Anyway, would like notes/docs., references if you all have some.
