Your logic is correct. If your licensing allows many Virtual Tape Drives then create them and run many parallel backup jobs. Even in a virtual environment this will make your restores quicker. Also, if you ever move to de-duplication, the act of multiplexing your backups ruins the ability to detect duplicate blocks. Your de-dupe ratio will be terrible.

This is a limitation of NDMP. Multi-streaming is possible with NDMP backups just not Multiplexing. Thanks Mike Heck Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008 13:18:45 -0700 From: "Costa, Christopher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP Question To: <veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Question, Normally when you dedicate a drive(s) to a NDMP host that host can only use one tape drive per host and cannot multiplex data streams. If you chose not to dedicate any tape drives to the NDMP host and chose to use the remote NDMP backup method, can a single host use multiple tape drives and multiplex data streams? How is the performance of the remote NDMP backup? Thanks Christopher C. Costa -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It would be far cheaper to have a single master server and a media server in the remote site. This obviously keeps the license costs down and centralizes the management.

This also assumes you have libraries and or storage devices with like media drives so that in the event of a disaster of your primary site, you can recall your media and place it in the library in the DR site. This way your NBU catalog is as good as the last replication cycle of the VCS. If you are using strictly disk between the sites with cross replication then of course you are as good as the last replication cycle there as well. But truthfully the best DR solution is one that's right for your companies business requirements and if that's what you seek you should spend the $$ for proper consulting with NBU. Or I bet Curtis could be hired for the right price ;-) Justin Piszcz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/30/2008 05:12 PM To Aleksandr Nepomnyashchiy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject Re: [Veritas-bu] Best setup for NetBackup in 2 sites across the WAN link On Wed, 30 Apr 2008, Aleksandr Nepomnyashchiy wrote: > Dear Gurus, > What is the best setup for NetBackup in 2 sites across the WAN link? > > I will have a tape library on each site. > > > - Should I purchase 2 NetBackup servers and manage them separately? > - Is it better (or cheaper) to purchase NetBackup server for a primary > site and media manager for the remote site? > > > Thank you, > Aleksandr > _______________________________________________ > Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu > http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu > 2 masters and manage separately so if one environment goes down, the other will continue to run _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu Own the landmark Planet Earth series on DVD!
