  • 1.  Multicast Sessions Super Slow

    Posted Aug 05, 2014 07:41 PM

    We were getting good speeds of more than 400 MB/min doing a GhostCast Multicast session to over 30 computers.

    While that was restoring nicely, mistakenly a command was run on the Ghost Server; NGSERVER -STOP

    Naturally that killed the good sessions. Whoops!

    Ran NGSERVER -INSTALL and restarted the session. But now getting speed of only 23 MB/min!

    Rebooted the server and restarted the sessions again. Still only 23 MB/min!

    In Unicast I can get 374 MB/min but only on a couple of machines; trying to do 30 drops it down to 70 MB/min.

    Help! How do I restore good speed from the GhostCast Server?

    What version of Ghost?

    Tell us about the server machine - what O/S and what version of Ghost?

    Also - does the server machine have more than one NIC?  If so, try removing or disabling the one that is not being used for Ghosting.  Check also that you have IGMP snooping enabled on your switches.
