Okay, this one is making my head hurt. I'm still investigating why my
500gig backup is taking 80 hours. It looks like it isn't a disk i/o
problem. It looks like I have extremely slow data transfers from the
mail server to the backup server. Using perfmon on both machines shows
no packet loss or errors. The switches think everything is hunky-dory.
I even moved the two machines to the same physical switch and no
change. While transferring a file from the mail server both NICs show
1% utilization. If I move data the other way I see 25-50% utlization
and a proper transfer speed. I have stopped any antivirus services on
both machines.
What gives? What else should I be looking at?
Thanks.
Bill
