Hi all,
First off, I apologize if this is the wrong area. I could not find an Exchange 2007 forum on TechNet.
We have recently deployed an SCR server to an off site location. Before leaving for the location, I enabled the storage group copy, did a seeding of the database, and let it alone for a few days to ensure everything was working as it should. After this was complete, I suspended the replication, moved the server down to our off site, and resumed the replication. This is where it gets weird.
We are running a 10meg pipe between us and our off site. From the get go, I noticed my CopyQueueLength and ReplayQueueLength queues are running quite high. Replication is occurring, but only ay 2megs on a 10meg pipe. This is causing us to see a back up in the amount of time its taking to complete the replication process. As I type this, it's 11:14AM central, and the LastInspectedLogTime I see is from December 10th, at 2:32PM. This means I am running around 18-19 hours behind.
We've confirmed with our networking group we are running a 10meg full link between our office and off site, and our provider has set their switches on both ends to be 10meg full as well. I'm still seeing only 2meg of traffic between generated every second.
Back at my office, I purposefully put the replication over a 10meg switch and it was running at 9.5megs a second. We've deployed a monitor on the both the source Exchange and target Exchange's NIC and confirmed we are still seeing only 2megs across. We are
putting our monitoring software on our switches now to see if we can find the bottle neck.
Is there anything I am missing that could be causing this problem? Is there any way I can increase the amount of megs being sent if everything checks out fine on our switches?
Thanks for the assistance!
