Quick migration processing empty

[matteu]

Hello,

I would like to know if it's normal Processing rate for quick migration job (after instant vm recovery) is always 0KB/s and bottleneck is detecting until the end of the job ?
Is it not possible to update it during the job to know what is his value ?

The situation does not look expected, so can you open a case with our support team and provide its number here? Also, it would help us, if you share the vSphere version you are currently at. Thanks!

any chance it's using vMotion instead of Veeam's Quick migration?

[matteu]

Ok I will do it and share the number here
It s quick migration for sure. I migrated around 100 vm from hyperv to vmware with this method and number were present only if I use veeam transport for migration and not vmware.

Vmware is on new v7 with vxrail.

Ah, that's what I mean though @matteu. Migrate to prroduction can trigger vMotion or use Veeam Quick Migration: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... ml?ver=110. So which are you using? It should say in the UI

I don't know for sure, but my guess is that this is by design -- vMotion we don't deploy datamover agents so we cannot know the data transfer amounts like we would if it goes through our datamover agents, just the % reported by VMware. Processing Rate is just a function of total data / Processing Time which is why I guess that gets populated.

Code: Select all

09:52:12	Starting VM DDom-TinyVM_migrated processing at 5/30/2022 09:52:12 	
09:52:13	Migration plan:  [Mode] Storage VMotion [Host]some_host.esxi > the_same_host_esxi [Resource pool] Resources > Resources [VM folder] Some Folder> vm [Datastore] some_nfs_datastore > some_real_datastore

i m using vmotion.
Ok if it s by design and can't provide this information !
Thanks

Happy to help!

I did doublecheck the relevant database table and indeed it's populated by the datamover agents, so for vMotion based Quick Migrations, the processing stats are 0, but for Veeam Quick Migrations, you have processing stats.

Thanks for the answer and the details provided
