BackupIOControlLevel

Specifies a speed that Veeam Backup & Replication will use to read data from object storage. You can specify either of the following speed:

  • Lowest
  • Low
  • Medium
  • High
  • Highest

VBRUnstructuredBackupIOControlLevel

False

Run the [`Get-VBRUnstructuredServer`](get-vbrunstructuredserver.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter values. Save the result to the `$server` variable. 2. Run the `Set-VBRAzureStorageServer` cmdlet. Set the `$server` variable as the `Server` parameter value. Set the `High` option for the `BackupIOControlLevel` parameter. ::: ## Related Commands [`Get-VBRUnstructuredServer`](get-vbrunstructuredserver.md)
