Hi Mike, Effectively, there is nowhere this information on Symantec site. If this is a prerequisite, Symantec would have to give this information on a document.

> I use direct attached tape drives ( through a SAN ) to backup my filers. > I don't use remote NDMP nor 3-way NDMP becaus I don't want to use the network for backup or restore traffics. Which network ? SAN or Ethernet you do not want to use ? If the drives are SAN attached and you are using them right now then you are using network ( SAN ) already anyway. If you are talking about your TCP/IP network then no worries - only the metadata is transmited over TCP/IP or commands and status to be exact. Implementing NDMP will not change your backup traffic flow. 1) Please check previous postings - this was covered just few days back. A memeber of this list, working for Symantec gave a detailed and specific answer to NDMP sharing question. http://www.mail-archive.com/veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu/ is a good WEB archive to use for searches. 2) between the filers ? Using NDMP ? That'd be a 3-way NDMP backup I beleive. NBU master gives goahead to filer1. Filer1 dumps to filer2 attached drives. But note (!) - you'll be sending the backup traffic over the network between 2 filers. Regards This message uses only 100% recycled electrons.

Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP and SSO in NetBackup 6.0 [NC]
Jonathan, I hate to contradict you, however the most current support documentation shows that the SUN StoreEdge Filers are not supported for SSO via direct attached drives. The Sun StorEdge NAS Systems are only supported via Remote NDMP, 3-way NDMP and in the case of the 4.20M0 OS direct attached NDMP backups. Nowhere does it list SSO. I have double checked this with the Symantec testing team as well as with Product Management. Symantec is constantly working with Vendors to get products certified, as they are certified the compatibility list is updated. The compatibility lists are your best source of information, as these are constantly updated. The 4.20 version of Sun StorEdge OS currently does not support SSO on Direct attracted drives. If you were provided with information from Symantec that it is supported in this way, please contact me off list with the case number you opened to obtain this information. Thank You Mike Heck Customer Focus Team Symantec Original message thread: I've got confirmation from both SUN and Symantec that The Sun StorEdge 5320 running 4.20 M0 will allow SSO both via Remote NDMP (thru the Media Server) and Direct Attached. I'm still a bit sceptical, because it hasn't worked yet, but I've got a fair amount of confidence that when Sun & Symantec say something works, it will. I'll have it up and running next week and I'll confirm one way or another. -Jonathan -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2007 3:59 PM To: Martin, Jonathan (Contractor) Cc: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP and SSO in NetBackup 6.0 [NC] Why not ?

[Veritas-bu] NDMP and SSO in NetBackup 6.0
My understanding is that the SSO option simply allows you to use drives for NDMP and other backups. Without the SSO option license, Netbackup won't allow you to add more than one physical path to a device, which is required for that kind of setup. I'm not sure about the Celerra. If it's like a Netapp NAS, would zone and connect things in the san so that the system sees a particular tape drive, and then configure the Celerra (by way of a simple device configuration file) and Netbackup to use that drive. It's completely unnecessary for the NBU master or media server to see the device itself for NDMP backups. Fred - Hi, We have some Celerra NAS devices on the network (and SAN) and would like to use NDMP to back up those devices. We have a tape library with six tape drives in the SAN. Is it possible to configure the Celerra NAS devices to mount the tape drives from the SAN with NetBackup SSO option? Or we have to mount the tape drive on one of the NetBackup media servers and do three-way or remote NDMP backup? I read through the NetBackup for NDMP SA's guide but still not clear on how SSO works with NDMP. Can somebody kindly explain to me how SSO works with NDMP? Thanks much, Rongsheng __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP and SSO in NetBackup 6.0
If I understand you correctly, you want to share all 4 drives between the Media servers and the NAS device. Allowing the NAS device to do local backup and not use the network. If that is correct I am afraid it is not possible with the Sun NAS device. See the support.veritas.com web site for the current "Veritas NetBackup(tm)Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) Compatibility List (updated January 29, 2007)" document number 251713. The Sun NAS device is only supported for Direct attached, remote, and 3-way NDMP, not SSO. So with the Sun NAS device the only possible solution to use direct attached tape drive would be to zone the SAN to have at least one tape drive dedicated to the Sun NAS device. This would however limit you to 3 or less drives for the 2 media servers to use for non-NDMP backups. Otherwise you could use remote NDMP, but that would require pulling all the data over the network. To clarify the reason that some vendors are not supported, there are two different ways of doing scsi reserve and release. If the vendor does not support the hard reserve / release that NetBackup uses we cannot assure the integrity of the data and thus cannot support SSO on that platform. So far Only these vendors have been certified to support SSO: EMC Celera in most of the 5.1 and higher DART OS Revisions ONStore in EverON 1.2.3 and higher IBM running Data ONTap 7.1.1 and higher DinoStor running OS 3.6.5 NetApp running 7.1.1 or higher Thank you, Mike Heck CFT -Original Message- From: Martin, Jonathan (Contractor) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2007 2:08 PM To: Mike Heck; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] NDMP and SSO in NetBackup 6.0 Ok...

Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP and SSO in NetBackup 6.0
Rongsheng, We use nbu6mp4/sso/ndmp to back up celerra cifs servers. It is easier than with 5.1 but works fine with one word of caution down below. You need to zone the fibre so the celerra sees the drives. Setting up the library is specific to that box. Once all the fibre stuff is done you will need an sso licemse and a ndmp license. Once loaded you will go to media and device mgt/devices/ndmp hosts (this is the gui of course, (sorry all you died in the wool cmd line junkies) and add the name of the CIFS server you want to back up. After that use the Configure storage devices wizard to discover the paths via the ndmp option. This is way simplistic. It is well detailed in the 6.0 admin guides and those should be used. I followed them step by step and had no problems. CAUTION: I have mentioned this about the Celerra before but will do so again. If you are running the 5.5 code on the Celerra when you do an interogation of the unit whether by gui or command line the process can get hung up. The Celerra instead of timing out will fail the datamover. If you don't pick up on the fact that the DM has failed and you run another interogation you might fail the 2nd datamover which makes for a lot of unhappy users. So when you do this have nasadmin up and stop what your doing if you get the first failure. EMC knows about this, we actually had their people on site, who promptly blew away our celerra database. They have not been back.

Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP and SSO in NetBackup 6.0 [NC]
Rongsheng, I can't give yo much details on NDMP SSO configuration option as this is new in 6.0 and I am still on 5.1 I do not think there is much difference though - when doing tpconfig to create a device on media server, you'd just add "-share yes" option. For what it's worth, here are some generic NDMP ramblings I can share with you. You'll need the NetBackup for NDMP option installed with the license and mostlikely the same on EMC sides. If drives already zoned and Celera can see them - you practically all set jsut few configuration commands to run :-) Celera see the drive and start dumping to it when it's told to. Media and master servers get the devices ( tpconfig ) and STU configured ( bpstu[list|add|rep|del] ) with drives connected to NDMP host ( ndmphost:nrst#a in my NetApp case ). Master, media , robot control ( could be all on the same machine ) servers will do the scheduling and the media management ( pick, mount, unmount, etc. ) NBU will give a goahead to Celera to do the SCSI Reserve/Release and to start dumping to the specified NDMP drive[s]. Would be nice if you could post the summary if you'll decide to go with this.
