I believe that there is communication breakdown between the client and the 
server. The client is completing the backup, but the savegrp process has no 
idea that this client is complete, and is still waiting>>

You make no mention of the network infrastructure, nor if there are any 
firewall's in place between the server and client. Also, can you confirm that 
these two machines are on the same subnet (ie network address are exactly the 
same)

it still sounds like a timeout problem, what is the clients timeout period
? Is the same clients/savesets over and over ? Do they contain a large
number of files ?
I had a problem on a unix client which contained over 1 million small
files and even a full backup of this saveset took close to 22 hours....

Both on level backups and weekend fulls.

Most likely there is a client not done with its savesets which could
indicate that they have a large number of files in the saveset and that
thier timeout period is not yet reached.

Is it during incremental or level backups only ?

We have been experiencing this problem quite regularly.

The Networker GUI shows that all drives 'writing done', but when I
look
in the 'Group' windows, some clients are still running and pending.
What seems to be the cause of this and possible fix/solution?

Environment:
Networker Server v5.5 on Unix-AIX O/S
Client is NetWare v6 with Networker v4.21

thanks,
