Re: Occasional onbar log backup hangs

Hello JPM, I had onbar logs (and backups) hang almost every week. Our problem was usually that our network had brief (1 second or more) outages during the day. Since I could not get our network guys to fix it (and other issues with onbar), I got off of it. I switched to a cold backup method. But, in your case, try using a shorter, simpler, more dedicated network. Then test each component by following the bytes from source to target, checking everything along the way. This includes checking speed, re-transmits and "full duplex" (which in the old days worked better than "auto"). -L.S.
