Statistics of backup job

[MAA]

Statistics of my backup job:

Percent busy for processing stages
Source 35%
Proxy 21%
Network 83%
Target 1%

35+21+83+1=140%

Why its >100%??

Please review the sticky FAQ topic for bottleneck stats detailed explanation. The percent busy numbers are measured separately for each data processing stage so the total number for all processing stages should not give 100%. Thanks.

I do not understand

Let backup job time = 1 hour (100%)

Source 35% = 21 min
Proxy 21% = 12.6 min
Network 83% = 49.8 min
Target 1% = 0.6 min

21+12.6+49.8+0.6= 1 hour 24 min

from what time are considered your %?

I bet you still haven't read the sticky. Again, the numbers are independent for each processing stage. The number for each component indicates percent of time that it was busy doing its job and not waiting for other stages to transfer or accept data, regardless of the percent busy number of those other stages. Each of these numbers could vary from 0 to 100% and the highest number among all four shows the weakest point in the backup process (the one that cannot manage the workload relative to others).
