SME6.0 Backup time

[masaru]

Hi

I am testing SME6.0+Exchange2010.
Is this time appropriate though it took 22 minutes at the backup time of SME6.0+Exchange2010?

(Exchange have no data)

Is it normal operation though it takes the backup time long compared with SME5.0+Exchange2007?

Regards

Hi Masaru-san,

22 minutes is unusually long. Could you please attach the backup log from SME as well as give a brief description of the Exchange layout and the sizes of the mailbox databases?

Also is this the first time you've noticed this issue or has it been happening before as well?

Yes. I noticed this problem for the first time.

Hi Masaru-san,

The slowdown seems to be occurring mostly during heavy I/O phases such as backup verification, preparing the database for snapshot etc.

I am not sure if there is general I/O issue on the Exchange host or on the storage side. Are other applications responding in a timely fashion? If yes then can you run the backup job once more and let me know the outcome.

Sourav.
