The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Asked by TRiXinMO in Hard Drives & Storage, Backup Exec

Tags: exec

I am using Veritas 8.0 for my backups. I have installed the unix agents on my mail server (Red Hat 8 +Sendmail +Qpopper +Squirrell mail + MailScanner w/ Antivirus).

The backup starts fine but always seems to hang in the /home directory. Under the status the current file does not change and evently the backup will just fail.
a du /home says 319000 megs (of directorys)
[root@mail home]# ls |grep -e '' -c
31988


as far as resources are concerend:


Mem:       1548092    1408012     140080          0      93504    1004352
