Time Machine backups freezing Mac OSX

MaxSoukhomlinov

Hi All,

I wanted to share a solution for a problem that had me puzzled for days, when I was starting Time machine backups, it would hang about 200-300MB into the job.


It turned out to he caused by the fact that I had scan network files enabled on my Sophos AV for Mac client.

Disabling that resolved the issue straight away.

Cheers,

Max

    Christian,

    Reason I posted this is to share the problem and solution with everyone else, issue is resolved if I disable network scanning (which typically we would turn off under Windows installations anyway) so we are happy with this work around.

    Cheers,
