Combining Replication Jobs

Post by jkettler »

Hi there. I have 3 VMs replicating over the WAN successfully each hour. The time it takes to replicate varies based on how much data has changed (of course) so they will queue-up until the previous replication finishes. I assume this is by design, so I'd like to just combine those into one job. However, when I create a new, separate replication job that contains all three of those VMs, it seems to be taking a long time to replicate, almost as if it's replicating the whole VM from scratch again. Is there a way to get that new job to recognize the previous individual jobs' replications and use those (just replicating the differences)?

Thanks!

Yes, for that you should use the Replica Mapping functionality (search User Guide for "replica mapping" for more info).

Ah-ha - I had to check the seeding box to see that option. Thanks for your help! Loving Veeam so far.
