Backup throughput checking

Hi ,

     I Just want to know that is there any command to check the throughput of the backup that is running using the CLI so that i can know at waht speed the backups are running. I know i can check it using NMC and the green GUI, but is there any command to check this.

Thanks

Pratap

    Apart from monitoring commands is there any particular command to check the throughput for the particular client.

    Not sure about data rate for running jobs, but you might want to look at jobquery:

    bash-3.00$ jobquery -i - <
    > . type:session info;completed: 0;
    >
    > print
    >
    > EOF

    type: session info;
                     client name: myserver;
                       completed: 0;
               compression ratio: 0;
                    current pool: BackupHMR;
        current read/write total: 118945124;
                   device family: tape;
                     Device path: /dev/UOL/HMRdrive6;
                     device type: LTO Ultrium-2;
            extended information: ;
         Jobid from session info: 6549881;
          number of volumes used: 5;
              recover file count: 0;
              recover file total: 0;
                  savegroup name: Myserver_a_CMR;
                      saveset id: \
    4ac2f791-00000006-06014392-4d014392-09020014-4fdcd006;
                    saveset name: "T:\\";
                Session end time: 1291964984;
                      session id: 98515;
                    Session mode: 0;
              Session start time: 1291962408;
    total amount to be read/written: 0;
            total volumes needed: 0;
                   transfer rate: 0;    *** Don't think this is populated until completion ***
                     volume name: HB0253;

    From memory, the save completion messages will show the amount of data saved and the duration of the backup.  Divide the first by the second, and you have throughput.
