RE: Exchange 5.5 restore slow

Mary, for me it usually means that the nic card on the server/switch/media
server are mismatched. I.e one is set to auto and one is set to 100full or
100 half...

Hi all,
Exchange 5.5 SP4, Windows NT 4.0 SP 6, NT Backup

I have recently run 2 test restores of my exchange server and the restore of
the Information Store has been extremely slow, only .5 Gig per hour.  (The
store is 11 Gig.)  In the past, I've been able to restore in 2.5 hours.
Just wondering if anyone has come across this and has any suggestions on how
to troubleshoot?  Tried different tapes, tape drives and cables...

Hardware used - Compaq Proliant, Dual 3 Gig Xeon Proc, 2 Gig RAM, Quantum
DLT 8000

Thanks in advance.

I experienced this once, and it was because the RAID card was set to NO
CACHE for WRITE.  A common thing done back in the olden days with
Exchange, but not what you want when doing a restore.
