  • 1.  Integrity checks 33% complete after 4 days?

    Posted Oct 24, 2011 06:45 AM

    Hi,

    Running VDR 2.0 and vsphere 4.1, I have a san dedicated to VDR which houses 12 1TB "SAS midline" in raid 6 configuration.

    The first (and only, yet) volume given to VDR is on 2 TB (VMFS).

    Used space: 548 GB

    Non dedup size: 10.2 TB

    VDR 2 is having 4 cores and 4G of ram. I do not see a lot of IO on the SAN while integrity checking is running, nor do I see vast amounts of CPU used.

    What are some of the limiting factors (disk? cpu?) ? Should I try to divide into multiple 500G by basically dropping all data and giving VDR a couple of new 500G vmfs volumes?

    All help appreciated

    Yes, you have too big volume. VDR max volume size is 1TB for iSCSI and 500GB for cifs.

    Used space: 548 GB, so I don't see how it's relevant..
