I know I have one 2000 server with over a million files. Before journal backups it took about 1-2 hours to backup the server. After it takes about 20min!

Thank you for your reply! The total amount of files is about 600.000 files, so journaling is maybe a bit overdone. The problem is not the amount of files, but the time in takes to scan them. It MUCH slower than on other Windows NT clients.

Depending on how many files change on a daily basis. --------------------------------------- Bruce Kamp Midrange Systems Analyst II Memorial Healthcare System E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: (954) 987-2020 x4597 Fax: (954) 985-1404 --------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: Loon, E.J. van - SPLXM [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 21, 2003 7:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: File scan takes ages during backup Hi *SM-ers! TSM server 4.2.2.0, TSM client 4.2.2.0 on Windows NT SP4. I have got a strange problem with one of my Windows NT clients. The backup cycle runs for almost 24 hours. The thing is that the actual backup runs fine: 21-03-2003 06:15:17 Directory--> 0 \\zspln59848\f$\Data\Dep_NP\B777_flight_technical\Performance\Operation Manual\Concept\Performance Inflight [Sent] 21-03-2003 06:15:17 Normal File--> 3.852.288 \\zspln59848\f$\Data\Dep_NP\B777_flight_technical\Performance\Operation Manual\Concept\Performance Dispatch\PD-200IGW-GE90-94B-JAA-Sec11 PP2.backup.fm [Sent] 21-03-2003 06:15:19 Normal File--> 3.852.288 \\zspln59848\f$\Data\Dep_NP\B777_flight_technical\Performance\Operation Manual\Concept\Performance Dispatch\PD-200IGW-GE90-94B-JAA-Sec11 PP2.fm [Sent] 21-03-2003 06:15:20 Normal File--> 231 \\zspln59848\f$\Data\Dep_NP\B777_flight_technical\Performance\Operation Manual\Concept\Performance Dispatch\PD-200IGW-GE90-94B-JAA-Sec11 PP2.log [Sent] You can see that backing op an almost 4 Mb. file takes about 2 seconds, which is ok. But the file scanning runs at an excruciating low speed: 21-03-2003 11:25:41 ANS1898I ***** Processed 593.000 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:27:06 ANS1898I ***** Processed 593.500 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:28:24 ANS1898I ***** Processed 594.000 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:29:39 ANS1898I ***** Processed 594.500 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:30:43 ANS1898I ***** Processed 595.000 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:31:53 ANS1898I ***** Processed 595.500 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:33:12 ANS1898I ***** Processed 596.000 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:35:00 ANS1898I ***** Processed 596.500 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:36:41 ANS1898I ***** Processed 597.000 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:37:40 ANS1898I ***** Processed 597.500 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:40:00 ANS1898I ***** Processed 598.000 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:40:59 ANS1898I ***** Processed 598.500 files ***** 21-03-2003 11:41:45 ANS1898I ***** Processed 599.000 files ***** Scanning 6000 files takes 16 minutes!!!
