Hello to all,
I configured Backup Copy Jobs to the second location via VPN.
Two WAN Accelerators on source side and one on destination.
VM’s with low disks are going perfectly but the problem is the big ones.
Our FileServer is arround 7TB. Is it normal to take this long, its the first Backup Copy job without initial seed.

The bandwidth on both locations is 1GB connection.
Before this I was using Synology ShareSync and it was faster but as people already suggested me it was not a good idea.
I will wait for this to finish and check how the next ones will be. Its really a not ideal situation.
Dont know how to approach this

Hi,
If you could seed the backup somehow, then you can populate the global cache from the destination backup repository: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/wan_population.html?ver=120
Incrementals will be faster subsequently anyway, as they’ll be smaller.
What is the bandwidth available between the sites? I would suggest that until you’ve got this resolved you perform a separate offline backup to take off site such as rotated USB drives or tape backups, so in the event of DR you’ve got an up to date copy of data.

For next incremental and full backups it should get faster because we will have full backup already on it?
Its not possible to transfer it via USB3 or similar because we are divided into countries and its not possible to make trip to one site and get files.
Trying to figure the best way.
In case of disaster we will be at least one week outdated from the primary site and that is not good.

Have a read of this if you haven’t already. Your initial backup will be populating the cache to accelerate subsequent backups.
You’d be best looking at an initial backup seed via a USB3 device or something else similar, to transfer the data between sites if this could be done faster.

It seems to be normal. With an average transfer rate of 14MB/s, you have about 8 days to transfer 8.3TB.
