Is there some sound reason why you're backing up this share indirectly via CIFS, rather than directly via a native Windows client? Indirect backup of this type is not recommended, and will heavily impact your backup throughput, as every byte backed up has to cross your network twice, to and from the client mounting the CIFS share, and therefore limiting your backup speed for that share to AT MOST half the client's available bandwidth. -- Phil Stracchino, CDK#2 DoD#299792458 ICBM: 43.5607, -71.355 ala...@caerllewys.net ala...@metrocast.net p...@co.ordinate.org Renaissance Man, Unix ronin, Perl hacker, Free Stater It's not the years, it's the mileage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
