Was this image that was being duplicated originally multiplexed?

If so, and the duplication stream was not told to maintain the MPX image,
then it would take a considerable amount of time.  However, 29 hours does
seem a bit out of line.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Benchmark for Duplication speeds




I need to know what type of speeds I should be getting when duplication
backups.

I have a single Master/Media server so there is no network involved when
duplicating tapes.

Currently I'm seeing duplications take 5 - 8 times longer than the backup
Example 1 image took 6 hours to backup and 29 hours to duplicate.

While this is not acceptable for our environment I'm wondering what to shoot
for. I would expect duplications to be faster if not at least the same speed
as
the backup.

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks
