I've a script that until last Friday had been taking approximately 1 hour to take an Offline disk-to-disk backup of one of our databases. Now it's taking 2.5 hours. We've ruled our virus scanning software as a potential culprit.
Basic Config is is a Compaq server W2K SP1 connected to a Compaq SAN. The target and source disks are both in the SAN. Xcopy is being used to perform disk-to-disk. OK pretty off topic but just in case anyone has any bright ideas or has experienced someting similiar I'd appreciate feedback. ------------------------- Seán O' Neill Organon (Ireland) Ltd.
