how to limit IOPS backup

[beer beerz]

I have a backup configuration on whm, but when running IOPS is high, can I limit the backup's IOPS?

Hey there! We don't have a way to limit the IOPS values for the backup system, as that is something that is handled by the operating system. You can limit the server load value where backups will run by following the details in this article:

If it's in your budget, look at JetBackup. Among other features, you can limit the bandwidth to the backup destination, which effectively lowers the IOPS.
