Help me understand "Preparing next VM for processing"

[jbarrow.viracoribt]

Can you help me understand exactly what Veeam is doing when it's "Preparing next VM for processing?" For instance, in the screenshot below, sometimes this task is listed and has no time associated with it, other times it does have time associated with it, and sometimes it's listed multiple times in a row. What exactly is it doing?



Case 01002324

No time means that the respective action took less than a second to complete.
Multiple listings relate to different VMs being processed in parallel.
