All said and done, it is working, but does not seem any faster from our method before ( virtual proxies on each vm host.
I tested with a few active fulls with and without the direct storage snap box checked and they were literally done seconds from each other. Should it actually be faster, or is it more of a solution for not interrupting the vm or host while the snap is made or deleted in a traditional VMware sense and freezing the vm.
I did notice that the proxy we were using for direct storage access did have a ton of Ethernet traffic once the job started, so I was wondering if maybe it was still falling back to network/Ethernet?
Maybe we were just expecting lightning speeds?!
Any insight would be great
