Data Transfer Between 2 Servers very slow, What may cause this issue ?

10-15-2006, 04:10 AM

We got 2 MS Win 2003 Servers with RAID5 on a GIG-E Port / GIGE Switch.

Its taking on average 6 Min to move 1 GB of File betwen servers. I am
looking at the network utliszation and its very low, so the issue might be
with the disks, but we dont know.

How do we narrow down this issue ?

Thanks
