Monitoring

We have deployed corrective fixes to address the issue affecting certain VM and OneDrive backups and are actively monitoring system performance to ensure service stability and continued improvement. While backup performance is recovering, some customers may still experience intermittent delays or longer-than-normal backup durations as the environment stabilizes.

Our teams remain closely engaged and are monitoring the effectiveness of these changes while continuing to validate system health across impacted services. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to fully restore normal service levels and will provide additional updates as needed.
