We're running Veeam 6 at a customer site and replicating VMware VMs across a wireless link with minimal bandwidth. After upgrading from Veeam 5 to 6 we decided to create a new replication job, knowing the the initial replication would take about 7 days or so. The trouble we're having however is two particular VMs take more than 48 hours and are failing after exactly 48 hours. Is there a registry value to change this limit? I understand backup jobs have a per-VM limit that can be changed through the following registry value (with vSphere):
HKLM\SOFTWARE\VeeaM\Veeam Backup and Replication\VwVmReadyToBackupTimeout
Is there another registry value that affects per-VM replication? I have a case open on this but wanted to check/share with the forums in case anyone else is running into the same issue. Thanks.

Re: VM replication fails after 48 hours
Hi Luke - no, this key above is for the different timeout. I am not sure if the timeout you are talking about is configurable through the registry, because I've heard there is a custom agent build without this timeout already available. Support should be able to provide you with the one. Thanks!

Re: VM replication fails after 48 hours
Unfortunately still no resolution to this issue... Tried installing 6.0.0 patch 2 and the 48 Hour Pilot Fix... and still no luck. I'm told I may have to wait for the next patch to be released.

Re: VM replication fails after 48 hours
Installed Patch 3 a couple days ago... Thanks to Jeff B. in tech support for sending me a notification immediately of the patch. Should have results on this issue in the next couple days... Replication in process now.

This issue is now fully resolved with Patch 3. Successfully replicated a single VM over the course of 58 hours.
