Our backups are an estimated 28GB and are kicked off at 10pm 
but they are taking almost 24 hours to complete since we 
upgraded to amanda 2.4.2p2. Before with amanda 2.4.1p1 they 
finished about 2.00pm. Also the idea of kicking them off about 
10pm is they will run when there is very few users on the system. 
But it's not working that way, staff and students are not being 
dumped until during the day. Has any one got any ideas as to why 
the backups are taking so long. It should be noted that staff and 
student home areas are both located on the local host and are 
about 10-11GB each. I've attched a copy of the report sent at the 
end of the dump. Ignore all the failures, they are all 5.6 machines 
and I had not implemented the 2.4.2p2 client yet.

Further Info

The tape server is running Solaris 5.7
We are using dump
We are dumping to a 35/70 DLT

Thanks in advance

hese dumps were to tape SCMS10.
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: SCMS11.
