Thank you for the response Richard. I just was beginning to wonder if this problem was unique to me. Your experience gives me some confidence that this can be fixed since that is kind of what I have been endeavoring to do. We use a SAN, Fibre Channel. however we run the aide-server package which ssh to the host and runs aide on the local server. Both are SAN on fibre Channel. Ethernet is gigabit. I felt that it shouldn't take that long. I'll run a iostat but I don't believe I should have io problems. I'll go ahead and get that info.
I am running it as nohup aide.init hostname & would that make a difference?
