NTBACKUP problem - taking ages!
NTBACKUP problem - taking ages!
Hi all.
I have a problem with NTBACKUP. I have so much data that the BKF file is around 111GB!! obviously I am not using a tape drive to backup all this data but another hard drive. NTBACKUP compiles all data to a BKF file from the host drive on to another hard drive. Problem is not that however. Its taking ages to perform this task and during this time the server is on its knees!! No wonder why considering the huge amount and the backup being NORMAL and not INCREMENTAL or DIFFERENTIAL. Policies say that backup should be NORMAL/FULL.
Is there a way or another software which would allow a better compression or does the job quicker? I want the backup to be performed from HARD DRIVE-to-HARD DRIVE and therefore there is no use of LTO tapes or any other backup media.
Awaiting your opinion 
Many thanks
