I experienced this once, and it was because the RAID card was set to NO CACHE for WRITE. A common thing done back in the olden days with Exchange, but not what you want when doing a restore.

(The store is 11 Gig.) In the past, I've been able to restore in 2.5 hours. Just wondering if anyone has come across this and has any suggestions on how to troubleshoot? Tried different tapes, tape drives and cables... Hardware used - Compaq Proliant, Dual 3 Gig Xeon Proc, 2 Gig RAM, Quantum DLT 8000 Thanks in advance. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=& lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
