Hi,
I have 2 remote sites backing up to a central site dedup volume. The data has been pre-seeded.
The backups went well for both sites. However one site is verifying @29 MB/min while the other site is verifying at 135 MB/min. Why would this be so? Would it have anything to do with different WAN speeds at the 2 remote sites? I was told that the verify operation all happens on the central site media server, and that disk I/O is the determining factor for verify speed. However, this does not explain why 2 jobs with the same settings are performing so differently.
Thanks

If you have any antivirus scans running on the media server try disabling it during the verify and see if that helps
Also is all the firmware on the client is updated?

AV Scanning is disabled. All firmware is updated. Note that there are 2 verify jobs running on the same media server. One runs at speed and the other crawls. So if it were things common to the server like AV scanning/firmware etc. both jobs would be affected.

That's what i'm thinking.
