Re: slow backups (my pet hate)

Generally speaking, perormance problems are notoriously hard to diagnose

 

I am attaching a document which may provide some help

 

From your description, you are backing up to a file library.  Are you only using 2 writers?.  You should think about having  one writer per object being backed up

 

File libraries and VTLs need to run with a concurrency of '1', while with tape devices, you normally want to set concurrency to 10 or 15, if you are backing up enough objects, to enable drive streaming

 

I am a little confused by your backup environment description, so, let me ask a basic question.  Are you backing up over the LAN, or is your File library considered local.  AN easy way to check this is to see if the hostname referenced in a VBDA sesion message is the same as that referenced in BMA messages.  If they are not the same, then you are backing up over teh LAN, and probably looking at a network bottleneck
