I have 1 windows master running Netbackup 6.5 with 3 media servers. I have Storagetek/Sun SL8500 with 8 LTO3 tape drives (2 drives are dedicated via NDMP to a Netapp 3050). All drives are connected via FC to brocade etc. we have the Shared storage option but I don't think it's working properly. How can I verify that its working?
I believe the engineers that configured the zoning on the switch dedicated 2 drives per server and dedicate 2 to the Netapp. Did it makes sense to purchase SSO? I was told you should only have 2 LTO3 drives per servers because of "shoe shining" and the servers ability to handle more than 2 drives (Dell 2950's quad cores with 8gig of ram). I am wondering if the switch should be rezoned to make use of SSO or can the zoning have an impact on how SSO should be configured? How can these 2 play together? As you can see I am all confused and would love for someone to explain this in simple terms. thanks
