Good Morning,
I am trying to troubleshoot an issue in which gbak is terribly slow
while trying to back up a database from a remote server to a local
drive. Server A is executing the following command
"gbak ServerB:c:\databaseA.fdb c:\temp\backupa.fdb -b -g -l -user
SYSDBA -pas masterkey"
This command results in the database backup file landing on Server A's
c:\temp folder. This is what I am after. However, it takes almost 8
hours to complete. The database size is 11GB and the backup file is
8GB. I am assuming I am using this wrong or perhaps may be a better
way to get this done. The goal is to end up with the backup file on
Server A.
