Why are transfer sizes different between XO5 & XO6?

[jr-m4]

Same thing here:
Commit: a1dba

XO5 transfers ~ 9-20GB
XO6 transfers ~ 100-180GB

I am seeing similar but only 1 vm backup is different.

XO - commit a1dba
719.71 GB vs 415.96 GiB (Full backup)

For those of you that are observing a difference in the reported transfer size between XO5 and XO6, can you please let us know if the affected backup jobs are performing health checks?

@Danp
I have Healtch Checks on my Delta Backups. Yes

@danp

testing now... i did not have it enabled on my deltas but did have it enabled on full.. Running delta now with enabled. will report back.

Edit - still running but i think thats the issue health check is part of the calculation..

[Danp]

I've confirmed the discrepancy when health checks are performed. Let's see what @Team-XO-Backend has to say about this.

@Danp
Happy to hear that you too were able to reproduce the phenomenon.
Thank you for taking the time to look.

I made a fix; if you could confirm that the issue is resolved for you, that would be great.
Here's the branch: fix/update-transfer-size-calculation

@JorisK

This does seem to work for Delta backup and health check enabled. Did not run a full backup.

I can confirm that XO6 now shows the same transfer sizes as XO5. Lovely
