Wow. Can you get some solid metrics on the speed drop?
Is it only Exchange clients that are affected? Are these clients, SAN clients, SAN media servers, etc? Have you opened a case with Symantec over the issue yet? (Yes: I'd recommend updating the client software. As I believe I mentioned on list, the security vulnerability, part of what 6.5.3.1 corrects, affects all members of your NetBackup system, including clients.) -- gabriel rosenkoetter Radian Group Inc, Senior Systems Engineer gabriel.rosenkoet...@radian.biz, 215 231 1556 ________________________________ From: Michitsch, John [mailto:jmich...@gannett.com] Sent: Saturday, February 21, 2009 10:04 AM To: Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] NetBackup 6.5 Release Update 3 Hotfix 1 (6.5.3.1) We upgraded out master and two media servers to 6.5.3.1 (in order to backup a standby Exchange CCR node and Windows 2008) this week and our full backups this weekend are running incredibly slow, about 1/3 the normal speed. The client agents have not been upgraded, they are at v. 6.5.1. Do you think upgrading the agent will fix the speed issue, or am I going to need to open a support case? Thoughts? Thanks.
