Veritas Backup EXEC constantly reads from Backup DISK

Vlado_
Level 2

Hello,
I'm new to using Backup Exec.
I have set up a test capture for a deduplication disk that is connected to Backup Exec by an iSCSI disk (FreeNAS). However, this disk is still loaded when the backup ends. It's still the same for days. When I stop all backup services, including deduplication, from Backup Exec, it stops reading from the disk at all times. The size of the Backup Deduplication Disk is only 700GB.
FreeNAS and Veritas server is connected via 2x1Gbit LACP. Veritas server runs as VM on ESX VMware 6.5.
I'm using version 20.0.1188
Perhaps this is a deduplication feature, but I would expect that reading from a disk will sometimes be completed during the day, but it will still persist.
Thanks for help.
