Hi all,

 

We have 2 Datacenters with 1 Media agent on each, they have the exact same configuration but on one the VSS services (SW & HW) are running and on the other one they are stopped.

Services are in manual startup so my question is when are those services started? what is the default behavior? Stopped and started when needed? 

I know this topic has already been discussed but those specific questions weren’t answered.

 

Thx in advance for you answers.

Hi @jxbarb ,

 

The VSS services are in manual startup so that it will get started and stopped as and when needed.

Hi,

 

So I might have an issue if on one of my MA the services are always started.

Hi @jxbarb ,

 

VSS services will not create any impact on the MA since it will not consume much of CPU or Memory.
