johndansteel Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 Some of my backup jobs take a very long time building the snapshot at the end of the normal 'Proactiv Backup'. Backup set contains 98.3G for 617.096 files. The last job vent on for 15 hours and 8 minuttes. I am running Retrospect Multi Server 6.5.350 on a Windows 2003 Server Std.

natew Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Hi Retrospect updates NTFS permissions for every file and folder on the disk every time you run a backup. A large number of files will slow this down considerably. You can speed things up a bit by turning off NTFS permission backup in the script options. This will tell Retrospect to ignore NTFS permissions on files. NTFS permissions on folders will still be backed up. Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
