Very slow backup of Exchange Information Store

Thread needs solution

Hi,

since a few days, we work with the new version. Backup works though we got terrible slow backups with data rates (while backing up) from 10-12MB/s. With an Exchange DB of 75GB, it takes about 10 hours a complete backup incl. verify. Don't think this is normal?

Our environment:
- Exchange 2007 in a HyperV machine (2008R2 host)
- Backup depot is a SMB share on a ReadyNas 3100 (Gbit network).
- HyperV host is also connected via Gbit.

Any comments?

Hello Jens,

Thank you for posting your question in our forum.

Please be aware, that the backup from type Mailbox is using the MAPI to transfer all data. The faster method is the Backup of Information store. If you are using a personal vault in this case, the performance should be the same as for Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 Agent itself.

If you use a personal vault for the backup of the Information Store, you should contact our support for investigation. Find more information about your support options in our Customer Handbook.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thank you.
