Hi all, I have two identical Win 2k3 servers (Dell PowerEdge 2800, U320 RAID5, dual P4 Xeon 2.8) that I need to backup data onto an FC3 server running Bacula (P4 2.8GHz, USB2 HDD). All three machines have Gigabit cards running on a Gigabit switch with appropriate Cat5e cables.
Server1 has two files totaling 5Gb. Bacula grabs these files at about 25MB/sec - total backup time is under 4mins. Server2 has ~4000 files totaling 100Gb. The problem is that Bacula is only running at about 50Kb/sec for this server - simple maths tells us that it's going to take 3.5 weeks to backup the entire server! There's obviously something awry here - can anyone give me any ideas what to look into? The networking between the machines all appears to be fine (I can pull off large files between the Win 2k3 servers at around 30MB/sec) so it seems to be something to do with the Bacula FD. Thanks for any ideas! MattB ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
