[Veritas-bu] Backing up Exchange 2010

2011-10-19 Thread Howard Graylin
I've read some conflicting information on this and wondered if y'all can help.  
We're running Exchange 2010 with a DAG and we're not using the granular 
backup/restore option within Netbackup.  It's my understand that since we are 
not using granular backups/restores, then we do NOT need to modify the system 
account used by Netbackup.

Is this true??

Thanks,
Howard

[Veritas-bu] Status 84 - plugin error

2011-10-19 Thread Jack . Forester

We've been having jobs fail with a status 84 seemingly at random.  These
jobs are being written to a DataDomain 890 configured as an OST target for
the backups.  Both of the media servers in the environment (one AIX and one
Windows) are seeing these failures.  Since NetBackup is reporting a plugin
error, we've engaged DataDomain technical support in addition to Symantec
technical support.  These are the messages we see in the job details:

10/18/2011 17:52:31 - Critical bptm (pid=30605402) image write failed:

Anyone else have a similar problem?

Re: [Veritas-bu] Status 84 - plugin error

2011-10-19 Thread David Stanaway
We have seem similar issues when we exceed the max streams on the DD 
system. Synth jobs take up 3 streams, duplication jobs take up 2 
streams, so you need to be careful with the max jobs on the storage 
unit. If this is happening you will see messages logged in your daily 
autosupports (No alerts, logged messages)

Something like this:

Do you have more than one OST device with SLP and opt-dupe as well? 
There are some tweaks needed to make sure the correct media server is 
used for duplication and synthetic fragment reads if this is the case, 
which if you don't do, you will likely be clogging up your WAN link with 
non-optimized backup traffic.
