Snapshot replication one replicates one snapshot per hour

[JosB]

Hi,

We have two FreeNAS servers, one at the office and one at a remote location (20km or so) connected through a 10MBit uplink. I set up two different snapshot tasks: one hourly with a retention of 2 weeks, one weekly with a retention of 2 years. I found out yesterday that although the GUI allows this, it causes problems when replicating (http://support.freenas.org/ticket/1646). It seemed to haved worked without problems for a quite while though.

Right now it seems that only one snapshot is replicated per hour even although the vast majority is quite small (max 10MB each). There are no replication errors in /var/log/messages or anywhere else I looked.

Any idea what may be causing this behaviour?

Do these tasks run at the same time? You shouldn't have multiple snapshot tasks at same time. Myself have 1 task that runs every tuesday-sunday and keeps for a week. At monday i have a separate task that keeps for 1 month. No problems.
