Hello @handian.sudianto ! The throttling feature is explained in the following userguide article for Veeam Agent for Windows: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agent ... tml?ver=60

>You can instruct Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows to throttle its activities during backup....
>With throttling enabled, Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows sets low priority for Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows components engaged in the backup process (in particular, the VeeamAgent.exe process). If this option is not enabled, Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows components have normal priority.

Hello,
Already read and the article say 'The throttling option can help you avoid situations when backup tasks consume all available hard disk resources and hinder work of other applications and services.'
so the throttling is based on HDD usage? I mean if there are other process which consume high HDD usage, then the Veeam priority will be set to low?
