Hi All
I was wondering what policy design some of you have followed for large
Oracle environments
I am busy doing a redesign of an Netbackup environment which backs up
about 70 DB's spread across about 30 servers (some of which are cross
sites)
I am doing my best not to end up with a solution
Until you have an [x]inetd process running the system wont be able to
listen for bpcd connections
You can start bpcd in standalone mode (bpcd -standalone) on the client
for the time being

Hi Tal
As long as the DNS (and it's reverse lookup
configuration) is working or a good host files exists,
you also can backup the physical names, although
Doesn't that depend on whether you use the -i option?
If you want to pass the policy a file list you run bpbackup without the
-i

I suppose its personal preference.
I prefer using agents because:
1. It avoids a two stage recovery if your backup is not on local disk.
2. It puts more control and understanding in the hands of the backup
administrator (and more work unfortunately)

When you sent your original email you said your jobs were frequently
being killed with error 50 so it sounded like they would fail with error
50 while the server was running. Is it just one or two or do a whole
collection of jobs seem to die together during the backup window? Or do
you just come
Also - is this a multi-streamed job?
There may be more info in one of the other jobs associated with it

Hi Heather
If you have Cisco switches you can use EtherChannel (PAgP) which is very
similar to LACP for port aggregation - you would want to load balance by
source MAC. This should benefit your media servers depending on what
backup devices they are writing to.
You will also the need some kind

Error 13/4 can be a real pain but they are often related to network

As this is happening to all your jobs it sounds network related
Have you checked some of your system/NetBackup legacy logs?
Also run a all log entries report
I think to make an informed decision you would need to look at the
bigger picture. Your original goal was to increase your backup
performance and shrink you backup window
Disk can be great but don't expect your backup times to increase just
because you are using it.
Is your disk being provided

This may go without saying but I think an important point is to
standardise as much as possible.
This will make future troubleshooting and stability easier to control.

Depends on how much data you are backing up and what your retention

Hi Kevin
If you use INSTANCE $ALL and DATABASE $ALL NetBackup will automatically

You can either logon to the server as has been described and use the SQL

An easier method is to just remotely
Did you by any chance zone the devices into multiple HBA ports in the

Perhaps you had powerpath, DMP or some kind of multipath software
installed before?
By the way - there shouldn't be any problems with seeing multiple
devices and NB will only use the ones configured
The 64k limit was due to a tcp/ip stack limitation
I have always found larger buffers (256k) generally provide the best
performance.
Only if you had lots of small files would I recommend anything less
Flashbackup will definitely improve your performance as the data will
