Processing rate Direct SAN Access

[SilentDeath]

Hello Veeam newbie here,

We just implemented Veeam in our environment using the Direct SAN Access method w/ max. 8 concurrent tasks.
The back-up server a BL460C G6 running WS2012 R2 and is also the only proxy.
I forced the Transport mode to Direct SAN to make sure it's backing up this way.

Now for the storage, we have 4 P4500 & 2 P4530 HP Lefthand nodes.
This SAN storage presents the volumes as VMware datastore to the vCenter which is a VM running WS2008 R2.
The blade and the storage is linked via a 10Gbit core-switch.

As back-up repository we use an EMC NAS which is linked to the same core-switch.
This repo has 2 NIC's which are trunked resulting in a 2 Gbit processing rate.

I have a seperate job which backs up the Fileserver (WS2008 R2) with a processing rate of 75 MB/s.
Another job which covers 8 VM's has a processing rate of 58 MB/s.

Are these "normal" values? I don't have any experience in this matter and don't know what to expect.

Pretty common numbers. What are the bottleneck stats these jobs report?

For the Fileserver, the bottleneck is the Source & for the other job it's the Network.
I would suspect the target is the bottleneck since this has the slowest link speed.

In case where source is the bottleneck, you should look at your source storage configuration for possible improvements.

For the job with Network being identified as bottleneck, consider increasing compression level. Btw, how the target storage is added to the Veeam B&R console (what type of repository is used)?
