hi All,
Thanks alot for your replies,
actually the issue was, there is a raw partition which is of some TeraBytes.
so we took off this vm from snapshot backups and doing agent based backups. and agent based backup size is in GBs
Thanks

Please check what type of LUN provision has done for the VMs, is it Thick or Thin provisioning. If it is Thick Provisioning, it will backup complete Raw drive including the free space, as a snapshot, hence it takes more time to take the backup of complete disk space. If you have Thin, it will just backup only available data, not the rest of free space.
Regards,
Prathap
