Hello
Jeff very kindly provided some assistance. Also for the record, the forums here are not "case" related, its for help, advise, general support or maybe a quick troubleshooting process.
 
Cases should really be referred to Symantec / Veritas.
 
As much as I would like to help, I know nothing about UX 11i
 
In terms of the speed, again if this is being done over the Network, check your speed settings - verify the types of files / folders you are backing up. Also, Activity Monitor can show you roughly what the throughput is per kb/sec - what does that show?
 
Maybe its time to invest in a SAN Media Server (this allows you to perform backups directly to a tape drive over fibre as long as you also have SSO available to share the library and drives).
 
Hope this is of some help....

The most common reasons I’ve seen for slow backups:

1)       Networking – If you’re using 100BaseT make sure the card in the HP server AND the associated switch port are hard set to 100 MB / Full Duplex – They do NOT handle autonegotiate well at all.

 

2)       Make sure you’re backing up where you think you are.  I’ve seen slowness when I expected one media server to handle a backup/restore and on looking into it (usually on restores) found I’d not done the necessary to insure it was using the correct media server so the backup was going over the network to the from one media server to another and then via fibre to the library.  (Most of our big DB servers are media servers.)
