The Transfer throttle setting appears for SnapVault storage units only.

This setting makes it possible to limit the amount of network bandwidth that is used for the SnapVault transfer. (In case bandwidth needs to be reserved for other applications.) Zero (default) means no network bandwidth limit for the SnapVault transfer; SnapVault uses all available bandwidth. (Range: 0 to 9999999.)

A value greater than 0 indicates a transfer speed for SnapVault in kilobytes per second. For example, a value of 1 sets a transfer speed limit for SnapVault of 1 kilobyte per second, which is a very slow transfer rate.
