Veeam Replication - Ressource not ready ?!

Post by Treeeman »

Hi,

i have a litte Problem and need your help.

My Setup:
- One physical Veeam Server which is also a Proxy (VMware backup Proxy).
- Two additonal physical Proxy-Server
- Each Proxy have DirectSAN Access and is configured for four Jobs at the same time.
- There is no "Concurrent Task" Limit on my Repository
- I have enabled "Parallel VM and Disk processing"

I want to replicate about 7 VMs at the same time every two hours. So i created one Job for each VM with the same start time. Now if all VMs are processed i get on some VMs following message:
Ressource not ready: VMware backup Proxy

Is there Limit in missed or why i am getting this Message?
Many Thanks!

Best Regards
Marco

Marco, how many disks do the backed up VMs have? What are the transport mode settings for the proxies? Can you confirm that all of them do have direct SAN access to the source datastore (you can see the LUNs in the Disk Management snap-in)?

Hi foggy,

VMs with 1 Disk: 2
VMs with 2 Disks: 3
VMs with 3 Disks: 1
VMs with 5 Disks: 1

All three Proxies have the Transport Mode "Direct SAN Access" with Failover the Network enabled
Yes, all of them have direct SAN Access. I can see the source Datastores in my Windows Disk Management. Additionally i run each Replication Job one time on each Proxy to ensure, SAN Transport Mode is used for Replication.

Thanks!
Regards
Marco

Do you use automatic proxy selection for all the jobs?

Are the same proxies used as the target ones for replication jobs?

Hi,

i don't know if i should open a new thread for this.
I also have some other Replication Jobs who target to the same ESXi 5.5U1 Server. If i start multible Jobs at the same time i also get following error:
Ressource not ready: Target VMware host

It seems for me there is also a Limitation for Replications Jobs per ESXi Host. Could this be possible?

Thanks!
Best Regards
Marco

Then in case where different proxies are used as source and target for the replication job, there will be two tasks for each disk. You can count the tasks assigned to each of the proxy servers when you run all the jobs simultaneously and most likely see that all the available slots are taken.

Also, there is a limitation of using hotadd on target proxies that can concurrently process a single VM disk only.

Hi,

thanks for your reply.
I will try to add more simultaneously Jobs to my Proxies.
In fact each VM Disk counts as one Job i beliebe, this could be my misstake.
Thanks.

Yes, you're right. One disk means one task. So, you should setup number of simultaneous task that VB&R components (repository, proxy) can handle accordingly. Thanks.
