Re: [Veritas-bu] 6.0 advantages?
Title: Message It has been about a year since I ran 5.1 so I dont quite remember how they ran but with 6 a failed backup, like a full monthly, will retry at your set frequency (in our case 12 hours) until it completes with a 0 or 1. Sometimes it will try and run the same job everyday for a week. We rarely have to manually rerun jobs now. But I do agree that 5 is more stable. The 6 upgrade has required a lot of work to get 99% success.

In an environment with multiple media servers you only have to recover the Master in a DR. This allows us to be up and recovering any server in the 2 hours it takes to recover the catalog. If a media server is needed for throughput you can do a basic install of Veritas on it and be up and running. With all the data on the Master the media servers do not need any data recovered to be functional. I like the way it auto restarts failed jobs, but it bit me last night when a job tried to run 5 times and now I have 23 failures on the report for 1 server.
