Feature Request: granular throttle adjustment for workstation/mg by agent

Post by edison5000 »

For both B&R server side and user side in the agent. Even if users were permitted to adjust all features in the agent while in workstation/managed by agent mode with B&R right now (previously feature requested), even in completely unmanaged mode they cannot adjust this. It's either "throttle" or not.

https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agent ... tml?ver=50

I see that on the B&R side you can reduce bandwidth to/from the b&r server (network traffic, general options -> i/o control), but that does not allow each user to adjust it themselves, nor does it allow the ability for B&R admins to set this to some default percentage on the client side, either.

thanks!

Hi Edison

An administrator can configure bandwidth limitations for the agents in the protection group properties.

This limitation are applied to the agent if the Agent is added to a Backup Policy.

If added to a Backup Job, you can use global network traffic rules:

Does this help?

Thanks

Fabian - no, it does not, but thanks for the input. : ) We want users to be able to adjust their own throttling speeds at will.
