Hi, i have backuppc backing up a couple of linux machines of 30/40 GB each and a windows shared folder of 1.1 TB. Usually it takes one day and a half to backup the windows folder with a speed around 7 mbit/s but now the speed has decreased to 5 and it takes up ot 3 days to make full backup. I have already tried to reboot the server but speed remain the same. so some details, the backup server is proxmox virtualized, 2.5 Gb of ram and 2 processors (seems enaught since never reach more than 80% when making backup) 10/100 eth integrated port. The windows system is a windows server 2003, also proxmox virtualized, 1 processor. Backup is make on local environment, at night so lan traffic is very low or null. host configuration on backuppc is: XderMethod:smb ClientCharsetLegacy:iso-8859-1 SmbClientFullCmd: $smbClientPath \\$host\$shareName $I_option -U $userName -E -d 1 -c tarmode\ full -Tc$X_option - $fileList SmbClientIncrCmd: $smbClientPath \\$host\$shareName $I_option -U $userName -E -d 1 -c tarmode\ full -TcN$X_option $timeStampFile - $fileList compresslevel:3 (maybe i can reduce compression to save time, IF the problem is backuppc server speed)
how can i speed up my backups? also on linux machine max speed is 11 mbit/s, so not so much. thank yuo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Want excitement?
