Progress on sync jobs

[jlauro]

Is there a way to tell % done of vm snapshot sync doing pull replication PBS to PBS? (Would push work better?)

I have some large VMs (one 9TB, another 45TB) that seem to be taking longer then expected for incremental.

Currently we have a mix of 3 and 4 PBS servers. Doubt that's related, but mentioning it incase getting everything at 4 would be expected to help.

Hi,
no currently you will only see progress output after each finished archive being pulled, including some average download rate. You could check the traffic and disk io stat in the datastore summary to see if there is still some activity.

Multiple sync and backup jobs feeding the server not to mention verification jobs so there is always traffic, and the remote side does show get and download chunks, but pretty much locks up the browser as those are too verbose/long for multi-TB vms that have been running for days...

The main thing is if I need to do maintenance, it would be good to know if I should simply abort and let it start a newer snapshot next time or let it finish.
