Configuring Performance Throttling
You can limit computer resources assigned for Veeam Plug-in backup jobs. This setting allows you to reduce the impact of backup operations on the target computer performance. Performance throttling prevents Veeam Plug-ins from utilizing all computer resources to ensure that enough resources are provided for other operations. This maybe useful in case you detected that your source database responses are slower during backup operations.

To throttle Veeam Plug-in performance, do the following:
- Log into the machine with a user with root or instance owner privileges.
- Start the Veeam Plug-in configuration wizard with the following parameter:
MSSQLConfigTool.exe --set-throttling |
- To confirm that you want Veeam Plug-in throttle performance, type y.
All backup activities will be throttled if the system is busy. Backup performance may be affected. Proceed? (y/N): y |
After you enable the performance throttling, Veeam Plug-in will start backup activities with lower priority only if the system running on the target computer is busy with other tasks.
