Hello,
the incremental restore of files with large parent-directories (total of 300.000 Files) is very slow (about 2 hours for one file). Other files, even if they are more on the end of the tape, need only about 2-3 minutes for the restore. Any ideas are very welcome !
(We use a DLT 7000)

Hey Michael,

did you verify, that this comes from the tape ?
I suspect the filesystem overhead (300.000 entries) putting a brake on the restore here.
Esp. as you stated the restore of files behind this location is faster.

Try a restore of this files to an empty target directory, on a filesystem which does not contain so many i-nodes.

Do not know if this helps
Volker
