In regard to: Re: [Networker] 7.4 SP5 2 GB chunking of savesets -...:

So In our case, using oldauth did not stop the 2GB chunking. But it did resolve an issue we had where client backups would do nothing for the first 5 minutes after a group was started, then the backup would finally start and
run normally. We also saw this 5 minute delay when using the
savegrp -p command.

That points very strongly at a timeout issue because of something in your
environment.  If you're comfortable using a system call tracer, assuming
there's one available for your server platform, you should probably
consider tracing a savegrp that's using nsrauth.  That should help
determine where things are timing out.
