    Slow Backups

    Greetings, Gillogist. I would try running the backup through the ARCServeAgent, or through the network, not a mapped drive. Greetings, Nightwatch. Aye, I have tried the TCPWindow dance in the past. In all fairness, I can't really blame CA for this one though. It is really in the domain of...

    Slow Backups

    Greetings, Ronnie. I am glad that you have been able to make progress. In regards to the Citrix machines....again, go back to doing a FileSystem type of backup. If you are getting reasonable results the problem is not in the LAN/NIC portion. If you are, then the problem could be in the...

    Slow Backups

    Greetings Ronnie, The FileSystem storage device numbers look great! You have eliminated the servers, RAID subsystems and LAN as potential sources of the problem. Now we can focus on the tape subsystem. First, check and make sure you have the current SCSI Host Adapter drivers loaded. Also...

    Slow Backups

    NorthstarDave: Don't know if you have the room to do this, or a group of files around that would suffice, but can you try and create/find a set of large files to backup? This should give you a better indication of performance without the filesystem overhead getting in the way. Also, if your...

    Merge successful - But not added....

    Yeah, my ARCServe 2000 database takes hits even if you look at it funny. I think CA knows it's bad, cause under the Server Admin tools they allow for reinitializing the individual database components or the full database without doing all that copying or re-installing. May want to check it...

    Slow Backups

    Hrm...only specs I can find on a 122T indicate that the data rate is 3MB/sec native and 6MB/sec compressed. Are you getting near 180MB/min or 360MB/min throughput? If you are, it's not too much to worry about. If you aren't then I would look at the drive array. How many drives in your array...

    Slow Backups

    Sorry for the typo... tape drive backup the same date in 40% of ... should read: tape drive backup the same data in 40% of ... Also thought of some things you could check. Is the compression engaged on the drive? I know that lots of manufacturer specs state X MB/sec with compression and...

    Slow Backups

    I share the same response as the others...that speed is really pretty good. To shed a little light on why I feel that way, all I can give you is an analogy. 100BaseT is rated at 100Mb/sec, or 10MB/sec. ALL theoretical limits. In the real world if I can get 6-7MB/sec of throughput I am well...

    how to take incremental backup in ARCserver2000

    Hrm...again, this might not be the only way to do this, just my suggestion... I would create a different backup job for each "group" of servers. You can even save these "scripts" as .asx files for future reference. Just title the backup jobs to reflect which groupings you...

    how to take incremental backup in ARCserver2000

    Incremental backups are selected under the Schedule tab when you are creating the backup job. I don't quite understand what you mean by grouping servers, but I am going to take a guess. All you have to do is select the servers under the Source tab. All your potential servers should be on the...

    ARCServe 2000 backup speed great, restore speed abysmal

    Running ARCServe 2000 on a W2K server, and backing up a remote server NT 4.0 through the ARCServe 2000 Client agent. ARCServe 2000 - service pack 4, and device service pack applied. ARCServe 2000 Client - service pack 4 applied. Windows 2000 - service pack 3 applied Windows NT 4.0 - service...
