Recommended values

[davicillo]

Good afternoon experts,

I wanted to ask you if there is any range of values ​​recommended by VEEAM for the sources, proxy, network and target resources, that is, a range that is considered appropriate.

Thank you very much

Hi David, there are no recommendations like that but there are system requirements for the minimums and best practices for some sizing considerations. Is this something you're looking for?

Thank you very much for your quick response.

We are trying to adjust the performance of our backup jobs by seeing if the values ​​of these resources that we are obtaining are optimal or not.

Maybe it was a bit ambiguous question but we didn't know if VEEAM had something like that.

Oh, you're talking about bottleneck analysis. Then in an ideal case, the numbers there should be more or less evenly distributed between components, but keep in mind that there will always be a bottleneck somewhere. As long as you do not see something close to 100% on any of those (which would indicate that other components sitting idle waiting for the slowest one), you should be fine getting maximum from your particular environment.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I've never seen such a behavior before. I understand evenly-distributed to mean that of the 6 values (as per support), all 6 values in pex should be close to one another, but I've never seen this.

Normally, my team and I aim for making the source or the target the bottleneck depending on what we expect from the source datastore/target storage. This helps set expectations a ton.

@Alexander, if I've misunderstood you, please let me know, but I've just never really seen "equal" distribution on pex values before.
