We have a Navision DB (US 2.01.B) running on an NT 4 server (dual 500 MHz processors, 528 MB RAM) using RAID 5. The DB is currently 4.9 GB divided into 3 files of 2 GB, 2 GB and 900 MB.

Up until 1 week ago the server was running SP 5. We upgraded to SP 6a in preparation for the installation of WINS and the addition of another subnetwork. On attempting to run the daily Navision backup that evening, we noticed that only 1% was completed after 10 minutes (the backup usually takes 35 minutes). We tried restarting the service, rebooting the server, expanding the database to increase the free space, all with no improvement. The next evening we let the backup run all night; the next morning it had only completed 46%.

Our NSC has contacted Navision USA, but they don't have any ideas yet. We're hoping that one of you does.

Thanks,
Caryn
