Slow backups
Ok running backup exec 2010. using a scalar 24 tape library. Was using LTO1 tape for the backup. Switch(finally) to LTO2 tape for the backup. What I'm getting is the backup went from 1,300MB/minute to 149MB/minute.
Anyone ever seen this? Has me stumped.

Ok manage to update all the tape drive drivers with no effect same problem as before.
I did retest my old lto1 tapes and once again they work perfect. After much testing it does appear I have a bad batch of tapes. It was one of the only things I did not even think about.
