Processor Usage
By default the Appliance uses 2 CPU. However I've had performance issues recently as I add more and more backups. I can assign more vcpu's to the VM - will Acronis use them if I assign them? Or should I start looking into splitting up my installations?

I'm backing up 1 at a time. I'm sure to space them out equally during the night. Yet I still get 100% processor usage warnings while backing up in Vmware. These are rather new Xeon processors too. I have about 30 servers I backup throughout the day.
By default the actual app installed 2 GB of ram so I'll increase to 4 to see if there is any improvement.
You think this is normal for 1 backup to run?

Hi Steve,
This CPU usage doesn't look normal. Besides increasing the RAM it makes sense to try deploying a fresh new appliance and perform a test backup using it to check CPU consumption - the issue might be related to the original appliance internal disk contents (excessive logs amount or something else).
Thank you.
