Well, I came in this morning at 3:30 to perform a recovery. Good thing we practice periodically, and have a step by step document - making decisions at 3:30 is not a good thing for me.
Anyway, our 8g store took 1 hour 33 minutes to backup, and took 1 hour 58 minutes to restore. This is to a DLT on BackupExec across the network. -----Original Message----- From: Aarts, Jan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 21, 2001 3:13 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Backup Time, rule of thumb My rule of thumb.... Restore = backuptime x 2 I never past this time but it includes also the installation of a fresh OS Jan -----Original Message----- From: Jean-Francois Bourdeau [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2001 3:42 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Backup Time, rule of thumb Hi Does anyone have a rule of thumb for backup time ? Could we say that if the backup is more than 5 hours, it could make things more difficult for the restore (downtime). Example you restore during 7 hours to see that something went wrong. You lost 7 hours. I never had to do a disaster recovery yet, most of the time, does it take the same time approx as the backup time to restore?
