Re: [Veritas-bu] Resetting the archive bit on windows backups

You could test behaviour pretty easily. We do TIR (with move detection) backups which behave differently (And better IMHO). On 3/23/2010 1:52 PM, Donaldson, Mark wrote: > This occurred to me on the way to work. Does the NB client for windows > reset all the archive bits on files after the backup

2010-03-23 Thread Glen Vassileff
Hi Experts We are looking at options to upgrade existing NBU 6.5.3 environment with Win 2003 Master to NBU 7. The easiest would obviously be straight upgrade. But we'd also like to upgrade Win 2003 to 2008 (by doing fresh install) at the same time. NBU 6.5 is currently installed onto a separat

2010-03-23 Thread briandiven
We have multiple VTL's and chose to use them as a Storage Unit Group. They are capable of deduplication. The vendor states that the amount of data/VTL increases the dedupe time and we are struggling to complete this process. Supposedly the time to dedupe has nothing to do with the dedupe ratio -

You have to logical libraries….. Means you have two libraries … one master controls one and its drives and its tapes, the other master controls the other library and its drives and its tapes. The NB masters know nothing about each other, and the virtual libraries know nothing about each oth

[Veritas-bu] Resetting the archive bit on windows backups

2010-03-23 Thread Donaldson, Mark
This occurred to me on the way to work. Does the NB client for windows reset all the archive bits on files after the backup's completion? That's the only thing that makes sense as I see it. If it reset the bit after each file, then a last-minute failure of the backup would not let the next increm

SSO allows you to share drives between a master server and multiple media servers. It's not meant to share drives between 2 master servers. A master server controls access to all of the tape drives within a robot - you can't have 2 masters with this control. I don't know how the logical libraries
