Does the percentage creep up at all? One thing you could try is checking the status of replication at the command line as you get a little more information that way.
- SSH onto the ESXi host that is running the virtual machine you're replicating
- Run the following command "vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms" which should spit out a list of all VMs running on the host. Note the ID number against the VM you are replicating
- Run the following command "vim-cmd hbrsvc/vmreplica.getState x" where x is the ID number of the VM you're replicating
This will split out something like the example below which will tell you how far through the checksum is and how much actual data is being transferred.
/vmfs/volumes # vim-cmd hbrsvc/vmreplica.getState 12
Retrieve VM running replication state:
The VM is configured for replication. Current replication state: Group: GID-4b535f47-434d-4068-a0d7-a7e36e8c37cc (generation=38763970093236284) Group State: full sync (37% done: checksummed 218.0 GB of 410 GB, transferred 14.2 GB of 216.0 GB) DiskID RDID-ab79cc55-642d-4a4b-b261-668425455661 State: full sync (checksummed 10 GB of 10 GB, transferred 7.8 GB of 9.6 GB) DiskID RDID-ddb1b0f6-b394-41a3-9edb-c96b0e55190c State: full sync (checksummed 208.0 GB of 400 GB, transferred 6.4 GB of 206.4 GB)
