When you run a remote job over WAN accelerators, Veeam Backup & Replication analyses data blocks going to target and calculates digests for these data blocks. To avoid problems caused by the lack of free space when switching from the High bandwidth mode to the Low bandwidth mode, we recommend that you configure WAN accelerators as if you planned to use them in the Low bandwidth mode. Besides, Veeam Backup & Replication will also use the global cache at the target WAN accelerator. If you disable the High bandwidth mode and start a job which utilizes this WAN accelerator, Veeam Backup & Replication deletes digest data that was used in the High bandwidth mode and recreates it for the Low bandwidth mode. When configuring WAN accelerators, note that there can be situations when WAN acceleration switches from the High bandwidth mode to the Low bandwidth mode : for example, the link to the remote location changes and you decide to disable the High bandwidth mode for one of the accelerators in the pair. All other trademarks or registered trademarks are the property of their respective owners.To ensure correct work of remote jobs over WAN accelerators, you must provide enough free space for service data on source and target WAN accelerators.
