[Veritas-bu] Large SAP backup problem

2010-05-06 Thread luciano prata

Hi,

Weaver, Simon, i dont understand, you tell me to create one media server 
specifically for this client is it? I think it’s a good idea, I have a free HBA 
in this P595, and create a media server on the same host as my client and link 
the HBA with my SAN network to the VTL, I think its work, my doubt is, is it 
correctly? If I create one media server on the client I can mess up the 
performance of the database I think..., but for now it’s a good idea.

Pedro Moranga, yea, its not the best way to do this backup, I have other client 
with BCV and EMC sancopy and its work fine, the BCV client throughput is about 
180Mb/s, 4 jobs with 45Mb/s each one.

But in this case My Unix analyst told me that BCV not apply to this client 
(because im not a Unix analyst I think it’s a hardware or incompatibility 
problem I don’t know how its work) and I go to find other solution but now I 
return a meeting with the Unix team and they told me the problem to do BCV or 
other solution for mirror de database to a one media server is because we don’t 
have other 10Tb free in the storages.

In other words, the solution is take a mirror of this base to a media server 
trough a SAN to VTL drives and do this backup like the other we have with BCV 
or similar tecnology.

I will do a request to buy same disk to do this.

Thanks all for response,

[Veritas-bu] Large SAP backup problem

2010-05-05 Thread luciano prata

Hello,

I have a problem with one backup, this backup now have more than 10 Tb, it’s a 
SAP base backup, my problem is because this backup take more than 36 hours to 
finish, the throughput is not bad, its do 4 jobs with 15Mb/s per job totally 
60Mb/s but my backup window is only 13 hours for 06:00 PM to 07:00 AM and I 
don’t know what I have to do to take this backup more fast. Below the 
description for my environment.

I have one NBU master Server Solaris and 3 media servers with NBU 6.5.2 in all 
servers and clients.

One media solaris attached to a SL500 library with 7 drives
One media solaris attached to the same SL500 and a VTL with 24 virtual drives
One media AIX attached to a VTL with 48 virtual drives

The AIX media server is on a P595 and these is the same machine than the server 
I need to backup, there is a Shared Ethernet Adapter controlled by a Virtual IO 
server to shared all the network card for this P595 to create the backup 
network.

I tested these backup with all the media servers, VTL and SL500 and it’s the 
same throughput.
I tested with 2 jobs, 4 jobs, 9 jobs and it’s the same throughput.
Tested multiplexing, the same throughput.
Online and offline backups, the same throughput.

I have a SAP client to do this backup, and I think the AIX media server is the 
best to do this because it’s the same machine, and my question is, there is 
other way to do this backup more fast?

Thanks,
