You apparantly have rather small IS's
Best case I can restore a small 1/2 TB IS in 7-8 hours....BEST case.
Depending on the user, that may have blown the SLA by 4 times.

I just posted something similar, but take a look at this link..

I personally do not see the need for BLB (brick level backups) of
Mailboxes. The performance you get for the IS is very good - BLB does
not surprise me too much and I am not a fan of BLB at all.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Exchange 2003 Mailbox Backups
We've just upgraded our Exchange server and one of the improvements was
to split the information store into 3 storage groups (only 2 contain
data that needs to be backed up though). Each storage group has 2
stores. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can use this to
improve my mailbox backup performance? An Information store backup of
about 95GB takes about 45 minutes. The mailbox backups take about 20-30
hours. Because of that I only do a mailbox backup once a month. I was
thinking about trying concurrent backups ... but the Exchange
administrator does not think we'll get any better throughput but what if
I backup up one store every weekend? How would I address that store in
the policy? I use 5.1 MP4 and currently the Mailbox backup policy
Directive set is set to MS_Exchange_2000 and the Pathname or directive
is Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes:\.
Thanks,
Mike Day
