You're right, I say it was slow from my own apreciation. The Volume file is 1 TB. And the restoration job was 65 GB.
And unfortunately, I don't have the exact timing for each steps , but I was stuck in the "forwarding spacing " for half an hour before I stopped watching. Elapsed time: 1 hour 16 mins 30 secs Files Expected: 26 Files Restored: 26 Bytes Restored: 63,581,189,026 (63.58 GB) Rate: 13852.1 KB/s FD Errors: 0 FD termination status: OK SD termination status: OK Termination: Restore OK BUSTER_BKP-sd JobId 9784: Elapsed time=01:11:20, Transfer rate=14.85 M Bytes/second BUSTER_BKP-sd JobId 9784: Forward spacing Volume "T1" to addr=249122650420 Ok, But in my memories this step o was much faster to perform ? So, as I understand it, it depends on the position of the data in the restore job in the volume. Can it be faster if I use smaller but more numerous volumes (if a smaller volume contains all the data of the restore job at once of course) The overall Rate is good for me.

How do you know it is slow in the forwarding? It might have done that quickly and is slow in the next operation. How much data are you restoring? You can try using 'status storage' and 'status client' a few times in bconsole to monitor the progress of the restore. __Martin _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
