Backup Exec - 3600 Interfaces

Hi,

I have just installed the above appliance. I am experincing slow backup speeds (500MB/min)

I have realised the traffic is going through interface connected to LAN. (connected via 100Mb switch)

I have 2 interfaces connected direct to my GB iSCSI network (SAN/ESX etc) but even though I state which interface to use during the backup, no traffic is going via those interfaces.

This should work? Do I need to configure routing.

 

Thanks

    What kind of disks are your servers running on? What RPM and level of RAID?

    Hi,

     

    when you use the agent probably you re using its deduplication option at the source client, it will only sends the blocks that has been modified over the LAN, therefore your speed should be faster than when you backup the whole full vm if there is not so much changing blocks.

    best regards
