Hello,

On one of my sites, when I try to browse the vCenter, it takes a very long time before I can see the list of VMs.

Also on a client, when I browse the folder hierarchy.

 

Any ideas ?

 

Thanks  !!!

Aha, looks like you figured it out :grinning:

If you are doing a live browse there is always a bit of a delay since we will mount the disk of the VM and walk through it β€˜live’ from the backup location. You can improve browse performance as well by enabling granular recovery but it supports less file systems and makes the actual restore perform slower - its a trade off. More details here if you are interested:

Hello,

 

My Media agent has multiple interfaces to avoid passing through firewall.

on the media agent client, I have forced the interface on Advanced | Job Configuration | Backup network section

I have set 

source MediaAgent > destination vcenter

the source IP (192.168.100.201) of the media agent and the destination IP on the vCenter (192.168.100.210)

Now browsing is very quick !
