Hi Experts,
i have AIR configured i my setup between production and DR. Its happening through 50Mb/s wan line. As of now 80Gb of data is taking 12-14 hours to complete on daily replication. Now the real challenge is we are going to add few more servers in our production environment and it is approximately 800GB to 1 TB of data over all. Now the question is how do i replicate this big amount of data into my DR with my existing line.
Please let me know if any solution for this.

Hello,
I have a bpbackup process running ok, but when I add to the same command the option -w It doesn't write in the file log. The command is the following:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpbackup -w -c SFE_UNIX_TRIMESTRAL -s USER_DIARIO -S mrbackup -t 0 -L /opt/logs/Backup_log.txt /backup
I try also with the following command but the result is the same:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpbackup -w -c SFE_UNIX_TRIMESTRAL -s USER_DIARIO -S mrbackup -t 0 /backup >/opt/logs/Backup_log.txt
Thanks.
Hi all,
I have a solaris 10 master server (6.5.6) and a Redhat Linux media server (6.5.6.). Both servers are connected to two networks (public & backup). The master server was installed using the public hostname whether the media server (by a foolish mistake) was installed using the backup hostname. I want to fix that mistake and set the media server installation to the public hostname of that server. What is the correct way to do it without loosing the references of the backups taken on that media server? I've seen the nbdecommission command but can anyone elaborate a little further for the specific scenario?
Thanks,
We are having a problem where the SELunix context is not breing restored on Symbolic Links within SELinux.
i.e
Context before backup
lrwxrwxrwx. root root unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_config_t:s0 asoft1 -> file1
Context after restore
lrwxrwxrwx. root root unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmp_t:s0 asoft1 -> file1
We are using NBU 7.1.0.4
Is anyone else experiencing this problem, or as anyone already experienced it and has a work around.
Thanks in advanced
Hi all,
Just a basic quesiton here.
Let's say we have one Tape STU and we have Max Concurrent Write Drives = 8 (8 Drives in Library)
And we create another STU on our 2nd media server. Do I also enable 8 for concurrent write drives? Or, would I do 4 on one and 4 on trhe other?
Will 8 on both cause issues (assuming let's say that one media server is using all 8 drives at a particular time).
Thanks
i have a Symantec Netbackup 5.1 Enterprise installed.
Problem: Netbackup keeps overwritting /appending onto the same tape despite the entire list of free tapes/media (label as TAPE01 - TAPE20) i have in my volume pool-->Daily Diff.
my volume pool have > 8 tapes yet netbackup keeps writing on the very first tape (which is TAPE01) on the entire list instead.
Reten period is 1 week
My plan is,I would like to set auto label for Daily Diff back up .i.e. 1st & 3rd week same tapes and 2nd & 4th week same tapes with 2sets(4+4 medias).
Kindly can any one help
I need to backup Vmware hosts with Windows VMs and some Physical Windows hosts over FC - not the LAN
This is a new deployment using NetBackup 7.6
Can i deploy a single linux media server (has to be Linux for San Client to function), with multiple HBAs i.e. one configured for SAN Client i.e. target mode, to backup with Windows hosts which have SAN client installed
And can i use the other HBA in initiator mode and use VADP for the backups for VMware?
I just want to know if i can get away with the one media server or if using a media server as an FT Media server is that all it can be used for.
Thanks
Gary
Hi,
I need to use SAN Client to backup my Dell servers over the SAN.
Is there a Hardware Compatibility Matrix for the HBAs on the Host to be backed up it to validate its compatibility with SAN Client. I cannot seem to locate this.
The only HCL I can find is for the HBAs in the FT Media server.
Thanks
Gary

Hi Team,
All drives actives state,but it not coming to writing state mean jobs are queue state.
Thanks in advance.
i want to configure a client at netbackup level. Please correct if i am wrong.
for Unix client
1)install the OS
2)we can ask network team to provide an IP and regestering the client in DNS server. Once regerstation done will get the FQDN to our system.
3)we will install netbackup client server software in the machine, it will ask licence key, master, media server names while installing and once installation done
4)we need to add client entries in master server bp.conf , etc/host file.
5)now will chek for the connectivity using ping, telnet and nslookup commands, Once the connectivity is fine will configure the server as netbackup client.
For windows client.
1)install the OS
2)we can ask network team to provide an IP and regestering the client in DNS server. Once regerstation done will get the FQDN to our system.
3)we will install netbackup client server software in the machine, it will ask licence key, master, media server names while installing and once installation done
4)Need to add master, media server entries in registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\VERITAS\NetBackup\CurrentVersion\Config\Server
5)now will chek for the connectivity using ping, telnet and nslookup commands, Once the connectivity is fine will configure the server as netbackup client.

Vendor has replaced the faulty drive, given the new serial no., the thing is that when i updated new serial no. its showing updated in the Global data base.
When ever i reset the drive its showing Invalid Drive Number.
We are using Netbackup 7.5 latest version, OS is Linux media server 1 2.6.16.60-0.97.TDC.1.R.0-smp #1 SMP Tue Oct 2 00:16:30 PDT 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux.
When i have checked from Netbackup end and OS level(tpautoconf -t) the output is same..its nw taking new updated serial no.
Moreover we are using storagetec liabrary, i can able to see the new drive serial no from SLconsole but unable to see from Netbackup end, when trying to do soo its not updating and throwing error
INVALID DRIVE NUMBER
Any one can help me in sorting out this issue.
hi
NB 7.5
nfs data i have started cpying on tapes , after 3rd tape 96 error came. it was 3TB Data. now we want to delete the data which is present now in first two tapes. Also when i search in catalog ,this data is not coming , so i ran Contents of the tape report , now that particular backup id is showing but we are unable to delte it. its Multi retention tape and retention of incomplete data was set to infinity,
NB7601 on Solaris using many features most notably LTO4.
I have a desire to eliminate a lot of the work around using tape. Currently we use no disk and I'd like to remove tape and associated manpower , overheads, licensing.
One stumbling block is as follows: the daily tape backups are moved offsite: the backups and the data are thus separated. Is there a way of doing the same with disk eg via replication/dedup ?Cheaply! I have Gbit networking to many remote places ie remote from where my master server lives but the data are too large (several Tb/day) to realistically put these data directly over the network , raw. These backups would only be used for recovery.
Simplistically I need to take my overnight data backups (incremental, I am planning on retaining my weekly full backups direct to tape) and relocate them on disk away from my primary site.
Thanks in advance, Jim
