Overview

This popup gives a progress of the replication schedule currently active. Note that the progress icon will be green if the replication is active. The percentage progress is based on the disk space used vs. disk space allotted and not based on the total data already replicated vs. total data to be replicated as part of the current schedule.

How to get here in the StoreGrid Web Console?
 In the top menu, select: "Server Admin->Group Management" and click on the "Group Name" in this group row. This lists the clients under this group. Click on the "Client Name" in this client row. This lists the backup schedules for this client. Now click on the "Progress" icon in the Backup Name column.

What does the ‘Replication Server Replication Progress’ window tell you?

• Transfer Rate - Displays the transfer rate of the replication data being transferred to the Replication Server.

• Client Name - Displays the client name whose backup data is being replicated.

• Messages - Displays the current replication progress message.

• Space Allotted - Displays the disk space allotted for the client in the Replication Server.

• Used Space - Displays the disk space used by the client in the replication server.

• Added Files - Displays the number of files newly added/created for replication.

• Modified Files - Displays the number of files that are modified in the client after the last replication.

• Protected Files - Displays the number of files protected/replicated to the replication server.

• Configuration Files - Display the number of StoreGrid configuration files replicated. Configuration files includes the StoreGrid created internal files during a backup.

• Deleted Files - Displays the number of files that are deleted after the last replication.

Troubleshooting Tips

Limitations

The replication server replication progress window polls the StoreGrid Replication Server every single second to get the progress of replicate. This process can slow down the actual backup operation by between 50% to 75% ! So, for large backup schedules it is better to keep the replication server progress window closed and open it only occasionally to check the replication server replication progress.
