Exchange 2010 VSS very slow with Avamar5. SP2

Hey.

I'm trying to back a small Exchange 2010 information store with the Exchange VSS plugin. It's about 45g. It ran for 7 hours last night, and did not complete. Does anyone have any ideas? 

Thanks for your help.

Aaron

The server is a VM (v4) running with 2 CPUs, 8g ram, connected via ISCSI on 10k drives. Exchange runs great during the day.

Hi,

Was the backup you mentioned is the first-time backup?

For performance tuning:

  • Client Related –

  • CPU/MEMORY/IO:

2,If Mem related, check if we have enough swap with vmstat or other tools;

                              3,If I/O related,  copy a large file for testing then use iometers or other I/O testing tools for testing;

                              2,hash cache – for database backup,  to backup 100gb size db will use 200 mb size p.cache. If lack of p.cache, there will not be related information as what f.cache does.

The firt backup of the Mail Box is very slow.

The second on will be faster than the first.
