I'm using NBU 3.1.1 (will upgrade to 3.2 next week, then 3.4 next month)
on Solaris.  I'm backing up a very small volume on a Solaris client,
only 460 MB--the problem I believe is that its a Storage Migrator
filesystem with many file 'stubs'.  The problem is that the backup hangs
on one particular directory *every* time.  This particular directory has
14,560 files in it.  As of a couple weeks ago it would finish quickly. 
I've let it run over weekends with no success.  It never gives an error
code, it always just runs, but I have to kill it because its in
production and it sometimes takes as much as 25% cpu.  

Questions:

Am I just not letting it run long enough?  

What is the maximum file count limit?  

Will 3.2 or 3.4 help me out?


Regards,

RCA
