Appliance: DL4300
Software Version: RapidRecovery 6.1.2.115
ESXI Version: 6.0
ESXI Server Spec: Dell R730x, 24 15k SAS Drives in RAID 6 - Adaptive Read Ahead - Write Back, 64GB RAM, Dual Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz
Problem: Exports from RR to ESXI run below 10MB/s on a 10Gb/s network. Many of our standby's are in the TB per day range, meaning most take approx 20-30 hours to complete. During this time backups of that agent do not take place, leaving the server vulnerable.
Troubleshooting taken with Support:
- All software and hardware updates completed
- Direct 10Gb/s fibre between Core and ESXI
- Pausing all other tasks on the Core and restarting the server
- Change RAID policy to Adaptive Read Ahead and Write Back
Performing an export of an agentless backup last night seemed to run in the 100MB/s+ range, however after checking the logs this morning it dropped back down to 18MB/s after an hour.
Any help is appreciated, and even a comment to say you are experiencing the same and info about your setup will assist.
