vRangerPro and VCB 50gb backup times

[beckhamk]

I know that this question will vary depending on san setup and traffic use. But I just wanted to get an idea from other out there.

For those of you using vRangerPro with VCB, how long on average does it take for vranger to backup the following two vmdk disk sizes? 10gb vmdk and 50gb vmdk? Also specify if your windows proxy storage is sata or sas drives.

Not an exact match, but we are running vRangerPro and last night a VM with a 16GB, 5GB, and 50GB hard drives took about 55min to backup (uncompressed) to a target over a 1GB link. Now we are backing up 3 and 4 VMs at a time during this. Hope this helps.

So that was one vm with 16gb,5gb and 50gb drives and another two vm's all being backed up at the same time took 55 minutes?

I assume this was 1gb LAN not 1gb FC?

You are correct, 1GB Ethernet. During the time this machine (which has 3 drives - totaling 71GB) was being backed up, others were as well. Typically 2 or 3 other sizable VMs are being backed up when this machine is. It took 55 minutes last night to backup this one VM.
