Under the Windows NetBackup client, when one backs up EFS files and say the host dies and you restore the EFS-encrypted files back to the host, what happens? Will they still be readable, or? Justin. ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.au

[Veritas-bu] Catalog restore tampered with by robot inventory

[Veritas-bu] RESOLVED: Each stream uses different tape for RMAN 1-channel backup

2008-06-17 Thread Bryan S. Leaman
I finally resolved this issue and the cause was something I never would have suspected. It turned out that my tape drives were flagged as "needs cleaning", which apparently causes NBU to unload a tape immediately after a stream is written and ignore any type of normal unmount waiting period.

We've used Vertices with the Netbackup automation agent for about 6 months now. We only have around 6000 media. Overall we've been happy with the product. It was very helpful to have at audit time. The company is responsive and the problems we've encountered have been fixed quickly. We did

This thread is to get a feeling of what others are using for tracking their media. We have around 30,000 media and we don't have a tracking system built in. We depend on Netbackup and some other tools, but no tool is complete now. Are people using any off the shelf tools such as Vertices or so?
