Hi Marc, try to check high migration percent (HMP) of diskool, maybe it's too high - large files comes over directly to tape when diskpool is near to fullfilling without starting migration of diskpool - then backup time of your tape pool grow because of that "bypasing files" are not backed up from diskpool like others. Note, that is not good set HMP to near to 100% or 100% between planed migrations because of previous mentioned.

This takes about 3 hours. At 9:00 my backup tape pool is copied to my copy tape pool. This usually takes about 5 minutes! Recently, the 5 minutes has grown to an hour or more! What would cause this? Why would data go directly to the backup tape pool, and not the backup disk pool? Thanks, Marc Levitan Storage Manager PFPC Global Fund Services
