Hi,

New here and wanted to ask a question and appreciate any answers!  We have a PowerStore client backing up a 35 subclients.  We have about ½ of them running for several days, two in particular are close to 10 days run time.  We just impleneted backing up these fileshares in PowerStore so I am sure there are somw tweaks we can make.

The start times for the fileshares to start backing up are staggered.  Some of the larger subclients have a very low throughput at  0.08 GB/hr while others 3000 GB/hr.

Any help at all would be awesome.

Thanks

 

 

hello @Jameson 

send the log files for the job from console/command center , unzip the media agent log files, open the PerfAnalysis_JobID log file, and check the throughput for Data Read, Data Transfer, and Data Write.

Hi @Mohamed Ramadan ,

 

Thanks  for your reply, I followed your instructions above and the PerfAnalysis_JobID log only showed the following:

 

Could not read log file or Performance counters for JobID 5155311 not found in the file


hi @Jameson 

the Performance Analysis tool runs automatically as part of the "Sending Log Files for a Job" Can you check to see if the CVperfMgr.log is present or not ? 
as per doc

@Mohamed Ramadan 

The job has been running for days now so its definitly longer than 10 minutes.  There is a CVperfMgr.log present.  What should I look for?

 

Below is a screenshot of the PerfAnalysis_1120179 log - there is nothing in it.

 

 

I paused the job and sent the job logs again and reopened PerfAnalysis_1120179 and it still said the same exact thing.


okay @Jameson 

Since you have CVPerfMgr, the issue lies in the Performance Analysis tool, which analyzes and reports the summary from CVPerfMgr.


Could you run the tool via CLI?
Open the command prompt, navigate to the base folder, and use the command: CvPerfLogAnalyze -jobid jobid] for the backup job.

@Mohamed Ramadan 

I ran that via CLI and it said:
