I've had the same problem once, what i did was remove the agent restart, then install the Backup agent and restart server again.

Try to copy the logs to backup server using copy/paste, what is the job rate.

if it's a firewall, try to check thru the logs for communication problems.

Hi,

For sure you have a communication problem, try to check on checkpoint logs for communication problems.

Once, i've had that problem, not on a firewall server, and the sollution was to unistall BE Agent, reboot, install BE Agent, reboot... and everything goes fine.

For testing, just make a firewall rule saying checkpoin->Backup server ANY, and see what happens.

cheers

I have have this same type of slowness.  When I added AV exclusions on the server being backed up i saw some improvement.

I you are using macfee search their website for the VirusScan Enterprise Exclusions (master article).

Forgot this AV exclusion.

Added the Anti-virus scanning exclusion for real time scanning and *.vsp

Per each drive letter: c:\Backup Exec AOFO Store\*.*
