Hi guys, thanks for your answers, but I am not trying to troubleshoot the server etc, as I can get more than 1 Gbps on this server using Windows Explorer to pull fies from other servers (should have mentioned that earlier and saved you the effort). All servers on single LAN, gigabit switches with huge backplane speeds.
I am only interested in knowing if you have ever seen more than 1 Gbps combined job throughput on Backup Exec, pulling data over Ethernet, as Backup Exec seems to choke at that speed. I am beginning to suspect nobody has done this - surely someone must have!
Symantec: is Backup Exec capable of doing this?
Not sure why I am asking, since Symantec have only ever tried to point the finger and have not once ever understood a single thing I've asked them. And they are SO rude to me on the phone. I would love someone from Symantec to prove me wrong! Just once...please....
