Bandwidth Throttle Help

[jweave]

Hello all,

I am having trouble setting up bandwidth throttling.

Here is my current setup:
I have my environment set up at site A, which includes Veeam box with several proxies.

I have site B, which has another Veeam box, and a few proxies.

These are on different networks. I have my Veeam box from Site A connected to site B's vcenter. I have a handful of replications run every night from Site B's location, to site A's Veeam and repositories.

I am looking to set up a bandwidth throttle during business hours. We do have a 10m/b connection between the sites.

From what I understand, you need to set up the throttle on both ends, but I am unsure on what to configure on site B's side.

Any light shed on this would be awesome!

Thanks in advance!

Bandwidth throttling should be configured on the backup server that is responsible for the corresponding jobs (site's A instance, in your case).

Is that the only place it is needed? Because I had set up throttling to throttle all of site B's network during specific hours, and it didn't seem to change anything.

Yes, this is the only place. I'd recommend to contact technical support so they could review your network topology and check the specific rules you specify.
