Checking resource credentials takes forever
Ok......so I did a clean install on a new server from 11d to 12.5. Here is my setup. I have a dedicated backup server (we'll call it 04) that I did a complete clean install of BackupExec 12.5 on; never had any other versions of Backup Exec on it. I have it interconnected to three other servers (01, 02, 03) via iSCSI. Everything is working fine so this isn't a super huge emergency; more of an annoyance. When I was running 11d on server 03, it was interconnected to the other two (01 and 02 -- 04 is a new server) via iSCSI as well.
So, whenever I went to do a restore, I had to put in the resource credentials (they were already setup, I just had to select the server I wanted) and test them. Not a big deal because the process took about two seconds. However, with 12.5, I have the same setup but testing the credentials literally takes five minutes. I kick it off and walk away.
Is there something I set up wrong or something to check or is this just an inherent problem with 12.5?

- Looks to be a problem with BEWS 12.5.
I loaded up SP3 in the hopes that it had solved the matter, and it clearly hasn't. I am at the point where I don't even run a credential check.
Laters!
