Re: [Veritas-bu] Backup starts off strong, then does not complete.

I had this type of problem on some hpux file systems a few years ago. The problem was a user script that had gone bad and generated several million files in 1 directory. Netbackup started walking down that directory and basically never came out. The processes timed out because of it. Try what Jonathan said and back up smaller pieces at a time until you identify where it is failing.

You might try checking the file system directories.

- Backup unable to complete (full or incremental)
- Starts of fine, tape gets mounted and writing starts.
- Write speed is very good at the start, as shown below (rmt/1).
- Backup progress goes from 0% -> 26% very quickly, with 273664KB (1500 files) written.
- I also noticed that when I kick start the backup, I see 6 bpbkar32.exe and bpfix.exe process threads in the Windows Task Manager. Is this normal?

- After that, I notice that after 3 hours, the completion rate is still at 26%. No changes in the number of files written.
- The write speed then just drops to about 11 kw/s.
- Finally the backup either ends with a code 54 or a 150.
Please advice. Thank you in advance.
