RE: veritas backupexec horribly slow on one NT server

[Jack C. Applewhite]

Jeffrey,   What version(s) of Oracle?  Are you using RMan? We use Veritas NetBackup Data Center 3.4GA because our colocation facility supplies it.  We run Oracle8i 8.1.6 under Win2k (dual 500MHz CPUs, 2GB RAM) and see in the neighborhood of 300MB/min ( about 200GB of backup in about 10 hrs), using RMan to feed the hot backup files to the Veritas tape server.  That's with nightly batch processes running against that database as well.  This rate is pretty much "out of the box", since I've not tried to tune or optimize it in any way.
