Matt> I have two identical Win 2k3 servers (Dell PowerEdge 2800, U320 RAID5, Matt> dual P4 Xeon 2.8) that I need to backup data onto an FC3 server running Matt> Bacula (P4 2.8GHz, USB2 HDD). All three machines have Gigabit cards Matt> running on a Gigabit switch with appropriate Cat5e cables. Matt> Server1 has two files totaling 5Gb. Bacula grabs these files at about Matt> 25MB/sec - total backup time is under 4mins. Matt> Server2 has ~4000 files totaling 100Gb. The problem is that Bacula is Matt> only running at about 50Kb/sec for this server - simple maths tells us Matt> that it's going to take 3.5 weeks to backup the entire server! Matt> There's obviously something awry here - can anyone give me any ideas Matt> what to look into? The networking between the machines all appears to be Matt> fine (I can pull off large files between the Win 2k3 servers at around Matt> 30MB/sec) so it seems to be something to do with the Bacula FD. I would start by looking at the Processes tab of the Task Manager on Server2 during the backup to see what % of the CPU bacula-fd is getting and if anything else is running. __Martin ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
