No, I haven't used a Niagara system with NetBackup yet, but everything I read about it sounds like it would be good for this. My understanding is that each of the 8 cores can finish a memory operation on the same cycle and each of the 4 threads per core can be following different memory operations. People who are doing database work and web serving are raving about it. People who do analytical and scientific work are complaining about it. That makes sense when you consider the clock speed (~1GHz) and that the 8 cores share one floating point unit. It is designed to support multithreaded workloads and lots of I/O. To me this sounds like NetBackup!!! I don't know the specs on the backplane, but it has 2x 133MHz/64bit PCI-X slots and 3x PCIe x8 slots, plus an on-board SAS controller. The memory bandwidth is something like 25 Gbytes/sec. There is good info about the chip (not the whole server) at opensparc.net. I hope to hear about other user experiences or give it a test drive myself.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Linux media server recommendations
Austin, Have you actually used a niagra as a backup server? Does it really have the bus/backplane bandwidth to handle life as a master/media server? I'd love to hear some real world experience (what kind and how many tape drives) as it's about time for me to upgrade the hardware in my linux master/media. I currently have an aging IBM x345 as my master/media with four LTO2 drives and about 2TB of DSSU, SAN attached through 2 QLA2342's (4 ports). I'm out of slots to add HBAs and my existing ones are near saturation, but that's ok because the internal bandwidth of the host can only handle two more LTO2 drives anyway. Patrick, I have used RHEL 3.x and 4.x and there is no comparison. The kernel memory management is MUCH better in the 2.6 kernel (RH 4.x) allowing much better I/O throughput. I have no experience with SUSE, but I'd imagine it still comes down to the 2.6 kernel (and Symantec support). --Original message-- Date: Wed, 7 Feb 2007 11:41:35 -0500 From: "Austin Murphy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Linux media server recommendations To: "Whelan, Patrick" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed On 2/7/07, Whelan, Patrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Sorry, I was intentionally vague to see what kind of suggestions I would receive.

I have linux media servers (Suse Enterprise Linux 9) on a SAN, also with a Solaris (10) master server. My setup is Netbackup 6.0 MP2.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Linux media server recommendations
Another thought I just got this info from one of the other postings good stuff
not my idea but might work.
"If your environment is SSO I will give you 2 tips.
Wait for the completion of all backups and then run make_scsi_dev. Then
configure all Linux drives.
After that comment (#) the make_scsi_dev line at the NetBackup startup script.
And do not reboot the system. If you do it you must run the make_scsi_dev
before netbackup start (and all drives must be idle)
I have install several linux systems and all working fine.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Linux media server recommendations
We use SLES 9 on a few of our media servers (rest are Solaris 8). I personally
am not a fan of RPM based Linux distros (Project was using Suse before I came
on board). The question really shouldn't be which one do any of you guys use,
but which one do *I* (as in you) prefer. I know Veritas will list Red Hat as a
supported platform. But there is no reason why you couldn't run Netbackup on
Red Hat, Suse, Debian, Slackware, or Gentoo (my favorite). If Linux isn't
really your strong suite, go Red Hat or Suse. RPM based distros can be easy to
setup, and configure...but can be hell when it comes to upgrading something as
simple as glibc. Or you could do something such as Gentoo, which could be
daunting for the less experienced Linux Admin. But will offer the greatest
speed / performance due to *everything* being compiled and installed from
source. Gentoo may be a difficult step to install, configure, and administer
for first-timers, especially in a production environment. But once you learn
the wonders that is portage, you'll wonder how you ever got along with out it.
There really shouldn't be a reason why you couldn't get netbackup to install
and run on pretty much any Linux distro. Netbackup is not an RPM or DEB
package...so it's your choice.
But, we've had success with Suse.
And please, no flames on yum or aptI know, I opened a can of worms.
