Hello Brian,

 

It depends. Which exchange server are you using.

Are you writing to a backup folder or to  a virtual tape drive

 

This may not be the only or the best method.

 

If to a backup to disk folder and you have multiple daq’s or storage groups then you can put them in different jobs.

If you allow multiple jobs to write to the backup to disk folder then you can have multiple jobs running at the same time.

Hello All,

 

Currently running backexec 2010 R2 and the backups are writing to Data Domain.  The job rate and performance is extremely slow and backups for a 1TB exchange server are running extremely long (20+ hours)!  I can see from the data domain auto support that backupexec is only pushing a single backup stream.  Is there a way to increase the number of backup streams in backupexec to get better performance?  I have ensured that the speed and duplex settings on all servers, switches, and data domain are hard coded to 1gb full duplex.  Is there something else that could be related to the very slow performance? 

 

Thank You,

Brian
