Increasing Capacity

Published : September 27, 2005

You can also improve performance by increasing the capacity of the DPM server through hardware upgrades.

  • Adding disks to the storage pool and reallocating the replicas across the storage pool can help reduce disk queue length.

  • Adding memory is a relatively inexpensive upgrade that can result in a noticeable improvement in performance if the server frequently experiences low available memory.

  • Adding more processors or upgrading to faster processors can reduce CPU issues.

Also, consider your data protection requirements: you may need additional DPM servers to balance the workload.

For recommendations for optimizing DPM server performance, see the “Planning a Deployment” chapter (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=46355) in the DPM 2006 Planning and Deployment Guide.
