[Veritas-bu] isilon backup accelerator

2010-06-07 Thread mitch808
I've run into a customer or two that has. It works, to say the least. However a better way, and cheaper way would be to just do a synthetic backup (ideally with dedupe) of the CIFS/NFS shares themselves. You dont have to buy the expensive accelerator head, you eliminate NDMP licenses, and

2010-06-07 Thread mitch808
There is no OST functionality with NetApp. NetApp wants you to buy more storage, and snap everything, to their storage. There is no need for backup to them. As for Falconstor, I've yet to see any customer with it. And I see a lot of customers a week across many states. The customers

I was just wondering if there is anybody running 7.0 in production on an AIX master server. We need it mostly for the 2008 support. We are currently running 6.5.5. Thank you, Scott PLEASE NOTE: The preceding information may be confidential or privileged. It only should be used or

It may, but I want to go to 7.0. I am dealing with a ~2 week recurring problem on 6.5.5, and nobody can tell me if it is addressed in 6.5.6. I have come to realize that AIX seems to lag behind in support, and wanted to know if there was anybody else running 7.0 on it. From: Baumann,

Where can I get just the Admin GUI for NBU7 on linux? Is it prepackaged as a separate file in the NBU7 server install like client installers are? For some reason X forwarding isn't working off this test machine so I want to try it locally. -- Nate SandersDigital Motorworks System

All that I have right now is a symptom. We have a hourly script that utilizes vmquery to count the amount of scratch tapes, and sent the results to a mailbox. If I leave the master server up for more than 2 weeks (I haven't determined the exact amount of time), my hourly e-mail shows 0

[Veritas-bu] How's 6.5.6?

2010-06-07 Thread Bluejay
After months of working an issue with Symantec, they're recommending that I upgrade from my current 6.5.4 to 6.5.6. Frankly, when we upgraded to 6.5.2, 6.5.3, and 6.5.4 to resolve an issue, we've been bit with something else that didn't work quite right, so we're more than a little gun-shy.

Almost totally ignoring your questions, I'll offer that while NetApp has a dedup capability, I'm unaware of an OST plugin. We have a nice pair of Quantum 6550s using NetBackup 6.5.5 and OST ... and are happy customers. After using NetBackup Vault to duplicate backups to tape for off-site, OST

Operationally very good. The Java console is slightly broken. The screen does not redraw correctly when dragging a slider - get a lot of smudged text. I've seen it a lot on Linux and some on Windows. Work around is to click above or below the scroll bar to make the screen 'jump' then it
