Well, since it's a disk, you naturally read the label. 8-)

Netbackup and SLES 11

2011-10-06 Thread Bern VK2KAD

Hi All

Is anyone deploying Netbackup on SLES11.   I am about to embark on this
trail and am looking for footprints to follow.

We already have Master and Media servers deployed in the mid-range SANs - we
are looking to exploit this infrastructure to give us file level backups of
our zVM guests.

Our preferred direction is do the backups via fibre channel rather than the
network - our z10 only had OSA Express2 cards so bandwidth is limited.

Early research reveals not all features/functions are available on s390x
architecture.  All comments appreciated

Bern

Scott,

Was this file system created prior to SLES10 SP2?  If so, that might explain 
why you couldn't do the online resizing.  There were some fixes to e2fs in SP2 
that made it consistently possible to run ext2online successfully.

It is still needed on SLES10 systems, which is what the OP was running.

Now, how do you tell "Fresh zeros" from "stale zeros" that may be past their 
shelf life?

"Fresh zeros" is a delightful turn of phrase that leads me to imagine busy
little IBM gnomes parcelling them out.
