If you use the DD as 'basic disk', NetBackup has no idea that the file system you are backing up to is a replicating appliance. Equally on the DD the NetBackup media server is just another CIFS or NFS client, and so could be one of many different backup applications.
If you start using OST (DD Boost) I suspect you may be more limited, e.g. if you want to use NetWorker and NetBackup at the same time. I don't know. With NetBackup be aware of the licencing for using backup destinations that deduplicate or replicate. They were in the 'enterprise' tier. Depends possibly on how you licence NetBackup (capacity or traditional). -----Original Message----- From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of redfireball Sent: 24 November 2011 03:46 To: VERITAS-BU@MAILMAN.ENG.AUBURN.EDU Subject: [Veritas-bu] Data Domain, Replication and Two Backup Applications Quick question to all Data Domain experts... Can you use a data domain appliance for two backup applications by carving out logical disk space and assigning it separately and replicating it to another appliance at DR site? Target site has same appliance with same capacity n same logical partitioning.
