zfs sync wait 1 hour

[dorijan79]

Hi to all,
I have strange problem, and that sync waits exactly one hour, and I am not sure why.
There are other VMs on that server that replicates on the exactly same secondary server, and there is no problem there.

did you activate/install the guest agent in the vm ? (and verified it works?) 1 hour is exactly our timeout of the guest filesystem freeze

Yes, guest agent is installed (but it is old windows 2003 server) and service is started. How do I verify if it is working correctly?
