You've already highlighted the&nbsp;delays and waits, so I suspect that you already know what you need to do.

bptm on the media server&nbsp;is waiting a lot. &nbsp;The client is not able to move data quickly enough to the media servers.

There's probably not a lot we can do from the NetBackup Server side of things, to speed things up.

Your first task to identify why the client is struggling to get data up from disk and across the LAN to the media server.

.

Do you know how to use the native OS tools to check a 'client' disk sub-system for performance?

Hello,

&nbsp;

this backup was always slow or it has been slowed down after some change?

Try to backup a subset of .nsf files by filesystem policy, if it is the same, or just try to copy them from the Lotus client onto Media Server.

If yes then cause is somewhere else - speed 5kB/s is not very high, considering that it is only 542 files...
