We had to turn off realtime scan on our media servers. We use Symantec instead of McAfee but I am sure the issue is the same. It is likely you have antivirus on your clients that you backup and having realtime av scanning on your media servers causes a problem. My backups with realtime on ran over 24 hours with realtime AV protection off it reduced to 10 hours.

If we stop/disable the Mcafee Antivirus & reboot the server, and then re-run the backup , every thing works like charm as usual. We have opened a ticket with the Mcafee & also to veritas, there is no proper response & point each other. Do any one face such issue on the windows media server? is there any fix for this.? Master server : solaris - Metbackup 5.1MP4 Media server - solaris & win 2k3 5.1Mp4 Regards,
