Problem. While setting up some new backups, all the virtual machine failed like so;. Unable to allocate processing resources.

How many proxies do you have? What is the number of simultaneous tasks they can handle? Can you check what proxy servers are effectively used during processing?

01.06.2021 · Backup Proxy Deployment. By default, the role of the proxy is assigned to the backup server itself. However, this is sufficient only for small installations with low traffic load. For large installations, it is recommended to deploy dedicated backup proxies. To optimize performance of several concurrent jobs, you can use several backup proxies.

26.08.2020 · I have a veeam deployment where I am continually seeing the message "Resource not ready: VMware backup proxy". All of the veeam components are installed on one (virtual) server with 8 cores and 16gb ram. In the properties of the "VMware backup proxy", I have max concurrent tasks set to 18 (yes, this is above 8 recommended for an 8 core server ...

Veeam Backup Manager reads job settings from the Veeam Backup configuration database and creates a list of VM tasks to process (one task stands for one VM ...

LBW transfer processes the backup data on the Veeam server to identify and only transfer unique backup data to the StoreOnce appliance. This is called “source- ...

08.01.2014 · Common issue and troubleshooting. 1. Waiting – Queued. The Waiting-Queued is waiting due to a resource constraint, there are two possible reasons:. 1) Server Resource Constraint A. GSAN in Read-Only status – The Avamar Server will be in read-only status in the following situations, at which point a backup may be in Waiting-Queued status due to limited …

It is best practices to plan for 1 physical core or 1 vCPU and 2 GB of RAM for each of the tasks. A task processes 1 VM disk at a time and CPU/RAM resources are ...

29.09.2014 · I have rebooted the Veeam server and the Nas that it is backing up to, still receiving the same message about 3 minutes after I start the job so the progress is at 0%. If I let the job go, it will just hang there indefinitely. Issue is Veeam saying "waiting for backup infrastructure resource availability".

For per VM backup files: 300 VMs per job; Consider that some tasks within a job are still sequential processes. For example a merge process that write the oldest incremental file into the full file is started after the last VM finishes backup processing. If you split the VMs into multiple jobs these background processes are parallelized and ...

There's indeed a logic that prevents tasks related to Veeam B&R server itself (or the server holding its database) from being processed in ...

Backup Jobs . A job is the trigger for the backup and replication process: It defines where, when and how to protect VM data. Configuring a job may look easy and straight forward, but there are some consideration to keep in mind, such as: Exclusions, chaining and what method is best for a given backup repository.

Mar 05, 2021 · Just as the message states it is waiting on resources like a Proxy server to complete the backup copy process. Usually, if servers don’t have the resources to process the number of disks in a VM then it has to wait.

Apr 17, 2014 · In the properties of the "VMware backup proxy", I have max concurrent tasks set to 18 (yes, this is above 8 recommended for an 8 core server, but I have increased it trying to fix this issue) As it stands right now, I have one job running (full backup of a large-ish fileserver), and 4 other jobs sat at 0% with the "Resource not ready: VMware ...

Sizing a Backup Proxy. Getting the right amount of processing power is essential to achieving the RTPO defined by the business. In this section, we will outline the recommendations to follow for appropriate sizing. Processing Resources. As described above, you may define the max concurrent tasks value in the backup proxy settings.

Jun 01, 2021 · A backup proxy is an architecture component that sits between the backup server and other components of the backup infrastructure. While the backup server administers tasks, the proxy processes jobs and delivers backup traffic. Basic backup proxy tasks include the following: Retrieving VM data from the production storage; Compressing; Deduplicating

05.03.2021 · Answer. Yes, just wanted to add that actually, backup copy involves repository-to-repository processing, so no proxies are involved. Furthermore, backup copy jobs have lower priority than restores and primary backups in our resource scheduling algorithm. Hope this may help in identifying the cause of the waiting.

Feb 13, 2014 · VERSION 7.X through to 9.X runs tasks in parallel, but can run sequentially with the parallel processing option disabled. Processing multiple disks on one VM will reserve multiple concurrent tasks. See Enabling Parallel Processing. Remember to not under-allocate your Veeam Backup server, especially if it is your backup proxy.

02.03.2021 · To limit the number of concurrent tasks on a backup proxy, you must define the Max concurrent tasks setting for the backup proxy. The maximum number of concurrent tasks depends on the number of CPU cores available on the backup proxy. It is strongly recommended that you define task limitation settings using the following rule: 1 task = 1 CPU core.

13.02.2014 · Deploy additional backup proxies from within “Backup Infrastructure->Backup Proxies”. This can be a physical server, an existing VM, or a newly-deployed VM. If adding existing virtual machines, bear in mind that Changed Block tracking will be disabled when backing up these VMs, which can substantially increase processing time.

Required processing resources may seem too high if compared with traditional agent-based solutions. However, consider that instead of using all VMs as processing power for all backup operations (including data transport, source deduplication and compression), Veeam Backup & Replication uses its proxy and repository resources to offload the virtual infrastructure.

HotAdd backup proxies, for example in “Linux-heavy” shops using VMware VSAN. ... no longer wait for the entire primary backup job to finish the execution ...

Tasks balancing between proxy and repository. To start, we must examine the notion of a “task.” In Veeam Backup & Replication, a task is equal to a VM disk ...

01.03.2013 · Wait 5-10 minutes for the tasks to timeout and fail. Remove snapshots from VM (s) that are part of the stuck jobs. (If they have not been already removed). Start the services that were stopped in step 2. ***Repeat Steps 2 –4 on each Proxy and Repository used by the Job. If you use the Virtual Appliance (HOTADD) mode, before removing the ...
