[Veritas-bu] Netbackup Appliance Vs Data Domain

2014-11-17 Thread saiyed123
I appreciate all the posts and opinions, i welcome some more as the information 
is valuable in making the decision, i am bit concerned about performance and 
reliability ( as mentioned by Scott) so hopefully more Appliance users can 
validate this issue.
I do feel Scott's issue may be 5220 appliance and with 5330's added 
capacity/performance it should get better as also noted by 5230 user.

[Veritas-bu] Netbackup Appliance Vs Data Domain

2014-11-14 Thread saiyed123
Our company is considering NBU for backup solution using backup appliance, our 
environment is mainly VMWARE ( 800+ guest) 30 + ESX and 30+Solaris boxes.
We also need Exchange backups to improve and keep the backup over the san when 
possible.
We will need data replicated offsite also.
Current proposal is Netbackup with 3 5230 appliances
I like the integration of Netbackup with Appliance but need to know those who 
are currently using it thier experience with it.
Upgrades/Vmware backup  Exchange/share point/sql etc, netbackup Air and 
accilirator products.
Why do you think Netbackup is better vs EMC or Commvault.
I understand there are some limitation with the Appliance in their size and 
capabilities as compared to DD, i.e NFS/VTL
Would it be better to go with two netbackup appliance and one data domain 
appliance so we can leverage all capabilities, Symantec is saying NFS 
capabilities are coming next year and suggest we backup external NFS mount ( 
waists of space and time).
So i need some opinion in this regard.
We are medium size company.
