Perhaps during the problem times all the file systems were doing level 0's and the dumps were running in parallel. This could cause high levels of activity that could cause great slow downs. Perhaps net contention. Perhaps multiple dumps from a single host and high cpu usage. Perhaps multiple dumps from a single disk drive and lots of disk head movement slowing things down. Now some are doing incrementals while others are level 0s. -- Jon H. LaBadie [EMAIL PROTECTED] JG Computing 4455 Province Line Road (609) 252-0159 Princeton, NJ 08540-4322 (609) 683-7220 (fax)
