[Veritas-bu] Logs stripping
Hi, We're just putting in a new NBU 7 installation and going OK so far J But we have a prerequisite that we cannot send any IP addresses or server names in any info we have to send to support - so was wondering if any one has any scripts that will strip these out of the log files? We're running on Solaris.

[Veritas-bu] Library
Hi, Just after a few opinions. I've been asked to put in a new SAN with NBU from scratch. The library's a fairly hefty box, a sun SL3000. It's only got 2 fibre drives at the moment for testing but will have several more going live. I was wondering what would be the best way to go connectivity wise - all going through 1 switch, 2 switches on 1 fabric or a switch on both fabrics?

[Veritas-bu] SQL Backup checking
Hi, This is probably very simple but not having done it before I thought I'd ask the experts :-) We've got a windows infrastructure running nbu 6. All we backup is flat files, with a mix of network, VSS and clariion scripted snapshots. Our SQL servers run their own backups to backup drives and then we back them off. Up to know it's just been a scheduled NBU job but the SQL databases have grown and now the backups overlap. Rather than just move the backup later, thought I'd ask if there's something cleverer we can do to check if the SQL backups have finished? Something ina bpstart script ?

[Veritas-bu] Licensing Question
Hi , I'm hoping someone can verify a license question. We're setting up an environment with Vmware - several esx machines , 2 w2k media/vcb servers and a windows master cluster ( 6.5.3) Symantec have said we need an enterprise license per esx machine, and I'm just wondering why! If it's vcb doing the work, and we're communicating just through 1 VC server I would have thought at mose 3, one per vcb and maybe 1 for the VC . How are you guys licensing it?

[Veritas-bu] Shared drive problem
Hi, Hoping someone can help me. We've got a new system recently put in, its been fine until recently - had to reboot the media servers and have had a problem since then. We've got an AIX master ( no tapes) a W2K3 Media ( also a VCB server) and an AIX media server , all with NBU 6.5.2a installed. After rebooting the first media server to run gets a tape drive no problem and subsequent jobs run ok. On the other media server the first job sits there with a status of 'waiting for shared tape drive scan to stop' Any ideas?

[Veritas-bu] Vmare vcb
Just getting to grips with vmware/vcb/nbu (6.5.2) and setting up some test policies - we're backing up through the vc server and have the requirement on one of the backups to exclude the D: drive on a vmware system. Now they don't show up as normal clienst so cant do theexcludes that way, so thought ok, create a policy with specific drives rather than all local, but there doesn't seem to be that option - does anyone know how I can exclude a prticular drive on a vmware client/vcb backup?

[Veritas-bu] Non Cluster failover
Hi, As part of my first forays into NBU , as well as trying to get VCB working :-) I'm also trying to set up failover. Trouble is for this system, our day-to-day support team have specified they do not want a clustered master. Not being that experienced in NBU or AIX it's a nice big learning curve for me :-) We'll be running AIX and NBU 6.5 so I was thinking maybe have /usr/openv as it's own LUN on the primary master and a /usr/openv LUN on the secondary . Install on the primary and install on the secondary . Then stop the services on the secondary , and set up a mirror from the primary, overwriting the secondary ( we'll be using DS8K's & metro-mirroring) then in a dr, remount the secondary . Would this work and what configs changes would be required eg to get emmserver working etc The set up will be two sites, AIX with a media server in both sites , and possibly a w2k3 media server in both sites too , master at one and failover master at the other This e-mail and any attachment is for authorised use by the intended recipient(s) only.

If the Connect using port number box is checked, deselect it. VMware Consolidated Backup software determines the port.

[Veritas-bu] netbackup, VSS & Clariion
Hi, Have a bit of a quandary. We have a CX380 Flare22 for one of our customers. We're currently backing up specific drives with Netbackup 6 MP4 integrating Advanced/offhost client and VSS using the EMC VSS hardware provider. All clients are W2K Snapping. There is one drive that we're successfully backing up on a nightly basis - Netbackup/VVS calls creates a snapshot/session of the LUN and presents it to the media server, putting it in the storage group and mounting it for backup. Yesterday the customer requested that the drive be backed up/copied on a regular basis during the day in case of corruption. Ideal candidate for snapping I thought. So I've created a Snapshot of this LUN and scripts that run every two hours creating a session and removing old sessions so that we keep 3 sessions. Unfortunately last night the backup run and added the backup snapshot into the storage group rather than the VSS snapshot, this of course failed to mount then. I've thought of maybe scripting a pre and post batch scripts to the NetBackup job that deletes and recreates the backup snapshot but was wondering if there's another way around it, and why does it pick up that snapshot as opposed to the VSS one?

Hi, Trying to understand the steps needed to recover in a DR situation with NBU 6.0 MP4 in a windows only environment - hope all you knowledgeable experts can help me :-) The set up is this - two sites, a primary/production and a disaster/test. The master is a cluster with a node in each site. We have a media server and a library san attached in both sites with the libraries accessible by both media servers. We currently run full backups weekly and cumulatives daily to a staging disk which is large enough to hole one set of weeklies. Om a Monday we duplicate the fulls to the offsite library. The disks themselves are replicated between sites. So we should always have a full and the latest cumulative available - So we have the tapes in the library, and we can mount the replicated disk on the other media server - how then do we use them to restore?

[Veritas-bu] encryption and offhost
A quick query. We've been asked to look at encryption for one of our systems. The client that needs encryption is currently being backed up with vss/clariion snapshot integration to off-host backup on the media server. In this case what would be the process for encryption and restoring from those backups ,? Should encryption be set on the client, media server or both?

Re: [Veritas-bu] Odd Status 71 for one Client
We had this a while back, Windows server 2003 and NBU6.0 MP4. Though in our case we were using VSS and there were old entries being left behind - wmic>shadowcopy showed shadows there when there shouldn't be, shadowcopy delete removed them and the backup worked ok -Original Message- From: WEAVER, Simon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 06 February 2007 06:43 To: 'Ed Wilts'; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Odd Status 71 for one Client Hi Ed Yes we done this prior to posting on the list - everything is up to the same standard as all the other clients.

[Veritas-bu] newbi script question
Hi, We're running a new system , w2k3 & nbu 6.0 mp4, utilizing VSS integrating with a Clariion and Advanced client/off host backup onto the media server. Now and again the snapshot will fail (rc 156) and needs a manual cleanup on the clariion of the snapshots/sessions before it'll work again . Rather than give our operators full access to the disks, I've set up policies that backup the disks over the network instead - is it possible to set this up so that if the job fails with a 156 then the equivalent network backup runs/ I assume I have to use bpend_notify to kick off a bpstart command? Can this be from the master or does it have to be on the client? And if so is it on the client or the 'offhost client' ie the media server? First time I've looked at post batch scripting any help would be great. Cheers Gary This e-mail and any attachment is for authorised use by the intended recipient(s) only.
