Hi,
Where I should look for problems when few of our VMs take very long time to backup.
We're using VDP appliance 6.1.1 and from the VDP SSH shell I can see current progress which looks like this:
root@vdp:~/#: /usr/local/avamar/bin/mccli activity show --active=true
0,23000,CLI command completed successfully.

Even there is only 0,5 % of new bytes it takes 6+ hours to complete.
None of those VMs are larger than 200 GB and no other backups are running at the same time.
We have about 5 of these in every 500 VMs. Some are Linux, some are Windows and even different versions. All of them have vmware-tools installed and virtual hardware is version 10.
I don't mind if backups are taking long but every now and then it takes so long that VM can not be backed up at all in VDPs backup window.
Network is 1 gbit and backup storage HP D2600 disk shelf with 12 x 3 TB NL-SAS disks in RAID6.
Any ideas?
