Duplication Job showing 0 Current Bytes written

[ullmanio]

Hi all my first post so be gentle :)

I have a duplication job that runs every evening and in the Job Details the file list is populated with the correct list and it says Completed.  But in the detailed status Current Kilobytes written is showing as 0.  Is this normal behavior for NetBackup 6.5?  Or is there something needing to be done?

Thanks,

Ryan

I don't think i've ever seen duplication processes ever actually show correct data in any way, whether its 0 KB or -1,348,567,214% complete. I would assume it would be actually difficult to show the "progress" bar for that based on the fact that progress is determined from a previous backup of a client and since multiple clients are probabbly on that tape, then you'd not show that correctly.

However, without asking the developers why, theres really no direct answer- just something you have to deal with.

The only thing i can say is i've never had duplication take longer than the backups.
