at impressive speeds. I've got approximately 50GB of Windows test VMs
and they are consistently pulling 60MB/sec. Granted this is an idle test
system and
I've never run into an environment that used NBDSSL. However, NBD and SAN
based VMware backups using VCB or vStorage are quite common.
NBD is typically used when you are not using shared storage, and all backup
traffic is over the LAN, usually over the console port of the VMware host.
