Has anyone ever seen BPCLNTCMD -HN truncate the IP address? For instance, the IP in the hosts file is 10.10.10.100 and BPCLNTCMD looks like this: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin > ./bpclntcmd -hn hostname host hostname: hostname at 10.10.10.10 (0xabcde0) checkhn

[Veritas-bu] storage nodes

Hi list, Got an interesting question (I think) :-) We run on Netbackup version 5.1 mp5, most of our servers run Sun Solaris. Our master server has a disk-cache device attached. This is 10TB of disks divided in three separate LUN's and filesystems. We have three LTO3-tapedrives, to which we

Hi Paul Its 2 systems, multiple Fibre attached drives, hosted on a HP EVA disk based system. Servers are SAN Media - again fibre attached LTO3 drives. roughly 3 - 400GB per volume. Regards Simon Weaver 3rd Line Technical Support Windows Domain Administrator EADS Astrium Limited, B23AA IM

Re: [Veritas-bu] Spam: NBU 6 Tuning for Small Files Backup

Tim, are you sure about this? I can't imagine having 100% of the original valume available as cache space, nor the load on the client, and the time that would be required to completely mirror a multi TB filesystem! Could it be that it uses something more along the lines of a Copy-On-Write snapsho

Re: [Veritas-bu] Spam: NBU 6 Tuning for Small Files Backup

Simon, Is this 4TB on a single filesystem? I'm guessing not how many different drive letters? how big is each? Is each drive letter on a sparate LUN/RG on the SAN, or do you have a couple of 1TB LUNs that you partition or combine on the host side into what you need. I've got one server here

Re: [Veritas-bu] Spam: NBU 6 Tuning for Small Files Backup

Ø Flashbackup will improve the performance (it caches the data as a sort of snapshot then backs-up the snapshot so it's like a large file rather than loads of small ones, or something like that) but because it works per volume, you need the space for the cache, which is at least the same size
