Slow Backups and replications(Build 12.1.2.172)

Post by plankton »

I have a 10GB network and my backups and replicas take forever.
My processing rate rarely reaches 30 or 40MB/s. The Primary Bottleneck is the Target but If I test the network speed between Veeam and the target I get speeds of 225MB/s(tests done during working hours while backups happen when people are away).

Any ideas why this could be happening?
Thank you

Hi plankton,

Sorry to hear about the performance challenges; can you share a few more details on the environment to help understand the setup better?

1. What kind of repository is it? (e.g., Windows, Linux, Network Share (NFS/SMB), deduplication appliance)
2. Target bottleneck refers to actually writing to the storage, so if the target repository is not a network share, this means the bottle neck is purely about how fast our datamover can write to the storage. With network shares, then network would be relevant

Basically, depending on the configuration, the NIC speed might not be relevant here as it will be more about how fast the datamover is able to write to the target storage. Not saying there is no network element involved here, just that a few more details would be great :)
