Hi Mate,

What is the fragmentation of the drive like as this is known to slow things
up if its really bad. Also what is the free space left on the disk, as
legato caches the infoe before sending it to the tape library you need
approx 10 to 15 % for it to run ok any less than this can cause speed
issues.

let us know how you get on mate, enjoy the car you deserve it.

Cheers

thats the thing I ain't getting one....... thats typical usually I can sort
through the garage and pick out the sensible stuff, but because its not
actually failing but taking forever its not reporting an error!

This all makes me think its the file and directory structure being
excessive.

Apart from that things are good and its nice having a company motor for a
change and cheaper!

Hi fellow networkers:-

Bit of an issue that I am currently having:-

We have one saveset on a Windows 2000 cluster (EMC SYMETRIX SAN)which fails
to go through on a full.  The data is only 38gb  of flat files and in theory
should only tak a max time of 7 - 8 hrs.

Other areas on the same cluster disk do backup but they are by no means the
same sort of size. other than one which is 20gb and also failed on a test.

The only thing that i could think of as the problem is that we do have a got
long directory and filename lengths we for some reason are pushing the
limits at up to 256... however that said an area of the disk that we tested
(20gb) the structure is of normal lengths.

The file cluster is currently backed up across a 10/100 network going to a
dual p3 733 dedicated server with 256mb of RAM and a atl 7100 library
running dual dlt 7000's. The server is Windows 2000 service pack 3 and the
legato Networker is version 6.1.

Has anyone got any clues I think I've out enough info down but of course if
you need anymore let me know.

Your help as always would be very much appricated.
