Hi All,
This is the speed which I regularly used to get that too oon the same tape.. We alternate the tapes.... Any help or issues... Also the tape is attached to a remote host which is a dedicated solaris box
Regards Rahul

Any Ideas why the dump is running so slow. We are running the filer to
dump onto a SDLT tape drive

Oh, yeah? In which case why does it say
DUMP: Dumping tape file 1 on /tmp/filer1tape
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
?
If this is dumping to a tape on a remote host, I suppose that _could_ be a symlink to a tape drive! But in that case, it may be the network that is the source of your speed problem.
