This may end up being a Veeam software discussion but since FreeNAS is being used I'd thought it be okay to post this here.
I am running a SMB repo for backing up two ESXi hosts through Veeam and noticed that sometimes I will get an error that hints at FreeNAS being the issue:
The problem is the backup job will fail on the first and sometimes second try, but usually succeed on the third so it appears that FreeNAS is simply being slow to respond? Veeam is sitting on a Windows VM inside ESXi Host 1 with a direct connection to FreeNAS over 10gbe using DAC. Everything works fine otherwise. Here's iPerf from FreeNAS to the Windows VM hosting Veeam:
FreeNAS is version 11.1-U7 with 16GB of ram and two mirror vdevs for a pool.
Again, if the backup succeeds on the second try, doesn't it sound like SMB share is not responding on the first attempt? If so, what could be the reason?
If this is believed to be an issue with Veeam, I will gladly take this elsewhere.
Thank you.
