I have a situation where BackupExec 10d will Freeze the server

The Exchange Files are 36Gb and 14Gb in size

So I stopped Exchange with a script and tried to Xcopy the ExchSrvr folder -
this stoped after about 5 mins and dos window closed

So I tried copying the 14Gb file manually using copy / paste

This gave a Insufficient System resource error and stopped at about 80%

I have 4Gb RAM in the Server and plenty of disk space

My page file is system recommeded 6Gb (both)

Any ideas?


From: Cliff Galiher - MVP on
copy and xcopy both use memory to copy files. Not surprising that you'll
have issues.

1) How much free disk space do you have? That paging file may not be
getting used in an optimal way if you are low on drive space.

2) Use a program that is more intelligent for copying. Robocopy comes to
mind.
