About setting a compression level for drive-based
backups
During the creation of a recovery point, compression results may vary, depending
on the types of files saved to the drive you are backing up.
Table 4-4 describes the available compression levels.
Table 4-4
Compression levels
DescriptionCompression level
Use this option if storage space is not an issue. However, if
the backup is being saved to a busy network drive, high
compression may be faster than no compression because
there is less data to write across the network.
None
This option uses low compression for a 40 percent average
data compression ratio on recovery points. This setting is
the default.
Standard (recommended)
This option uses medium compression for a 45 precent
average data compression ratio on recovery points.
Medium
This option uses high compression for a 50 percent average
data compression ratio on recovery points. This setting is
usually the slowest method.
When a high compression recovery point is created, CPU
usage might be higher than normal. Other processes on the
computer might also be slower. To compensate, you can
adjust the operation speed of Backup Exec System Recovery.
This might improve the performance of other
resource-intensive applications that you are running at the
same time.
