Hi Guy's
I have a problem with a backup exec 2010 R3 SP2 Running on Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise 64bit. This is backing up the servers below to a HP LTO3 Tape Drive
I have three servers
1 File Server, 1 Exchange Server, 1 Sage 500 Server (the sage server is where Backup Exec is installed).
The problem is that the speed of the backups have suddenly dropped from over 1000MB per minute to just 115MB per minute (this started two days ago). As a result the backups which normally took only 4 hours are now taking closer to 40.
As far as I am aware nothing has changed on any of the servers over the past couple of weeks. The bottleneck appears between the file server and the backup server.
I have already disabled the anti-virus on the file server with no effect. Where would be the next step to try troubleshooting?
Its been a while since I had to deal with tapes....
Thanks...
