2. Make sure that Robin between Data Paths (load balancing across all disk libraries) is set. Make sure that Use preferred data path or Alternate Data Paths is set, but do not use Round Robin. D2D housekeeping configuration It is a standard best practice with HP D2D Backup Systems to schedule housekeeping (space reclamation) to occur outside of backup windows to ensure there is no I/O contention on the device and ensure maximum backup performance. To set the Windows when housekeeping should be allowed to run, proceed as follows: 1. From the Web Management interface select Administration - Housekeeping. Up to two periods per day may be selected when housekeeping must not run (blackout). In the example below D2D housekeeping will not run, Monday to Friday between 18:00 and 06:00 (when backups are running). 34 Other considerations
