The job is taking more than one hour for snapshot processing in symantec backup exec 10. The server is connected to robotic library. Pls let me know what are the possible reasons
 
Snapshot processing is when you are doing a backup using AOFO or VSS for the snapshot technology. If you are using OFO you will need to make sure that there is not atleast 5 sec of no Disk writes to teh drive that you are trying to backup. The 5 seconds is the default setting for teh open file option. It can be changed to a lower setting but you risk backing up corrupt data
