We are currently using Clariion CX700 disk arrays for B2D. We did find that
RAID-5 was the best performance for our testing. We also found that some
environments performed better at 4+1 and some performed better at 7+1. We are
in the process of migrating off the Clariion on to a IBM/NetApp 55
They should probably look at moving to 6.5 when it comes out and use the Fibre
Transport client rather than adding all the media servers. We had a similar
model in our infant days with NBU. Lots of media servers all using SSO. The
environment was pretty unstable. Once we scaled back our medi

Both of these reports are "out of the box" reports with Aptare that we use all

We checked out WysDM when we were looking, but the

We are a big user of Aptare at our shop. It has been a
fantastic product and one of the only software tools I have found that we were
really able to use "out of the box". It has already helped us be able to

Title: Client Hostnames
We do the same thing. Each server, including the
master and media servers have two nics, each with their own name in dns.
One caveat, especially with user directed or database backups, have

You need to remove it from the Global Device Database (I am

No, the other jobs would just queue if a tape drive wasn't
available. Once one of the other jobs finishes on any tape drive, the job
would pick up and load a tape.

Tristan,
I have talked to several consultants and they said they have never gotten a

then migrate...and even that was difficult. We tried to rename our master
server when we went to 5.x and never did get it to work. G

We use auth.conf exclusively and there is not a way to give

We are using an IBM 3584 split into two partitions on

Jeff,
We have a Solaris master server and 15 media servers all using SSO. It is
pretty easy to set up the tape drives. The media manager configuration guide
will also walk you through it. We find the easiest way is to use the
"configure storage devices" wizard. Make sure that the master serv

We are just starting to set up DSU storage and have

4+1 works best with our file system (small files) backups and RAID3 4+1 works
best with our database and raw backups. There is still some testing going

Can you do a bprecover to a different server then move the media from there?
Either that, or set the master server up as the alternate restore server for
that media server. It should then be able to do restores, but it might leave
you with some issues with expiring the images. Good luck.
