hi, we just configured a transactional replication between a sql 2000
(publisher - distribuitor) and a sql 2008 (suscriber, extraction). My
Question is, full backups of the published database are taking forever, a
backup that usually takes 2 hours, today was like 11 hours (and we had to
cancel it, didn't complete).

So, Is there any special considerations for backing up publicated databases
so it doesn't take that much time? are we doing something wrong?

thanks!
