Re: [Veritas-bu] 10GB network + perf questions etc

Copper is available. It just depends on what your network guys are comfortable with in their environment. If you are capable of filling the pipe you can get about 8.2Gbps. Filling the pipe requires higher levels of multiplexing and lots of source points or multiple jobs. -Original

[Veritas-bu] Odd Policy Behavior

When I came in this morning and looked at my backups, I initially noticed that one client ran repeatedly. I sorted the activity monitor by client name, copied and pasted into Excel, yielding 792 rows. Now, I've gone back and am seeing that the other clients in this policy kicked off repeatedly.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Odd Policy Behavior

We had a similar problem a few weeks ago and contacted Symantec/Veritas. We got no explanation but were directed to recreate the policy and the problem went away. I.E., the policy definition was corrupted. Our symptoms were that the incremental repeated essentially every 30 minutes until the

[Veritas-bu] Catalog backups not running, error 230

I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem. We're running 6.0 MP4 in our test environment (Solaris 9 master server). I noticed that the catalog backup hadn't started on time, so I attempted to run it manually, but nothing happened. Thinking I hadn't properly tried to initiate a

Re: [Veritas-bu] Odd Policy Behavior

That's what I was guessing. Based on some previous conversations here, I just finished breaking out all the clients into discrete policies. Hopefully, they'll be fine. I'll probably leave them deactivated until my weekend full cycle and recreate the same, broken policy to keep it going this

Re: [Veritas-bu] Odd Policy Behavior

When we recreated the policy, a FULL backup was triggered even though we would have normally seen an INCR. Something Symantec Support failed to tell me. Since I'm somewhat of a newbie to storage management in the Open Systems world, I didn't expect it. Fortunately, the unplanned FULL backup

Re: [Veritas-bu] Clean up expired backups

I got really weird problems. Even we scheduled cron job for command bpimage -cleanup -allclients yesterday and it got run once every 6 hours, but I still saw expired (disk-to-disk) backups on the media servers. I even ran the command manually today and the expired backups didn't get removed at

I have not seen an include list in 6.0MP4. Unless you mean the Backup Selections list. If that is the case, then I did try that unsuccessfully. But thanks for your help. Pedro Moranga Gonçalves wrote: Did u set Backup Network Drives at policies' properties ? You can simple put the

Re: [Veritas-bu] Synthetic fulls Diff Inc VS cumulative Inc

My guess is that you would get a performance boost using cumulative, because NBU would only have to splice two backups. The full and the one cumulative versus the full and a week's worth of differentials. You also get the added advantage of if a tape fails you're covered (unless its your most
