verify as in verify data when backed up? I disabled that. Both enabled and disabled made no difference. >Also what does your Backup window look like? Well, we work from 600am to 500pm, so my backup window is between 500pm and 600am. I planned on doing full backups every night, but going to change that. Full backups on Friday and incremental the other nights. >Do these tapes go Offsite? That is the plan. >With Veritas is it running on this local machine or across a network On the local machine. Veritas Backup Exec 8.6 is running on the server which is connected via SCSI cable to the Benchmark. >Did you run Win2k Backup Over a network? Local. What I was going to do was backup all the servers to the local hard drive. The hard drive is 73GB and we have about 40 GB of data that we want to back up. This includes all SQL databases, html, jpg, and gifs. Then, once the files were copied onto the hard drive, running Veritas to back up that hard drive. I used FileSync to copy the files across the network. That runs fine. It is using Veritas to do the backup to Tape or another local hard drive that is slow. >Joshua Morgan >PH: (864) 250-1350 Ext 133 >Fax: (413) 581-4936 >[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 2:45 PM >To: NT 2000 Discussions >Subject: RE: Veritas backup rate? > > >Okay...
