I personally think that if this is the only solution then Veritas (the company) needs to re-engineer it's product.

What's wrong with veritas netbackup ? Why does it need to load all those files into "memory" before it even loads the F***ing tape ?! Stupid!<BR /><BR />Any of you have any ideas as to what could help, please do, cause we have an order for 6 more gigs of ram. Meaning that we would need 12 gigs of ram to backup 500,000 files...! Whoo hooo we're in 2005 and that's like the same thing as having 4-500 gig databases!<BR /><BR />Please help! <BR /><BR />Hey Mark, just had to ask ITRC experts.<BR /><BR />See attached screen capture.
