Ken,

Some quick math tells me that it will take about 10 days to backup
140 Gig across a T1, assuming optimum conditions.

It would seem that at least one of your locations needs local backup,
or a bigger pipe.

&gt; I am located at company headquarters where my main NetBackup server
is<br>
&gt; located. &nbsp;Now, they want me to start backing up branch servers
out in the<br>
&gt; field. &nbsp;Some locations have T1 and some have fractional T1. 
&nbsp;Servers
range<br>
&gt; from 10 GB up to 140GB of data. &nbsp;What methods are best for long
distance<br>
&gt; backups? &nbsp;Should I install media servers at some branch locations?
&nbsp;How<br>
&gt; reliable is restoring at long distances? &nbsp;Can NetBackup, or for
that matter,<br>
&gt; any backup software, be able to handle long distance backup with a
T1 link?<br>
&gt; Any comments would be greatly appreciated.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Many Thanks,<br>
&gt; Ken <br>
