This information details how to effectively manage network traffic within Veeam. By default, Veeam Backup & Replication utilizes five connections for data transfer. Should the network become strained, you have the flexibility to deactivate multiple connections or modify their quantity accordingly.
Follow the steps:
- Go to the main menu and choose “Network Traffic Rules.”
- Choose the following new data transfer parameters in the “Global Network Traffic Rules” window:
- Uncheck the “Use multiple upload streams per job” box to turn off multithreaded data transfer. As a result, for every job session, Veeam Backup & Replication will only use one TCP/IP transfer connection.
- Keep the “Use multiple upload streams per job” option enabled, and enter the required number of connections in the designated field on the right to change the number of TCP/IP connections.
Note: Veeam Backup & Replication checks data integrity during operations like backup and replication. It automatically retries transferring data without stopping the task if a problem is found. Please refer to the Veeam Plug-ins documentation for configuration specifics, as multithreaded data transfer settings may not affect individual backup processes.
