Debra, I can only say I've had a totally opposite experience with 9.0. Our NT servers had a few "bumps" in the installation process, but it was a straightforward install for the W2K servers. Our tape drive is an Exabyte 110L attached to a Dell workstation. Our Exchange backup runs at 576MB/min. We have a Dell Poweredge 6650 which gets backed up at 660MB/min. The rest of our servers are NT/W2K mix, which backup at 345MB/min. I especially enjoy the new Job Setup tab.

I have recently done this and have had nothing but problems. The remote agents were a challenge to install. Once I got them installed backups and restores speeds can range anywhere from 100MB per minute to less than 1MB, from one day to the next. Server backups will work for a few days and then just stop working. BEX8.6 was working very well. But, BEX9.0 has been nothing but a headache.. I have had our network admin look for any network issue and he saw nothing. Any other experiences?
