Where should the administrator tune the appliance?
The job details indicate that bpbkar is waiting for empty buffers, which suggests that the current buffer settings might be insufficient for the data transfer process. The correct place to tune NetBackup buffer settings for disk storage is the 'NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS_DISK' setting in the bp.conf file. This is specifically used for disk-type storage units and can influence the buffer size and quantity, enhancing performance for disk-based backups, such as those to an MSDP pool.
I think D is the correct answer for an appliance it would be C on a BYOD MeS, or if you want to do it out of the clish on the appliance (which is not the Veritas recommended method)
