Hello colleagues: I need to verify if we can scan VMware images which reside in OST devices (HPE Catalyst and/or Dell DataDomain). I have configured my environment with NBU 10.4.0.1, byo RHEL 9.2 media server. I am able to scan Standard and Windows workload type but not for VMware type. The error that appears in the scan job "Skipping backup image: ClientName from scanning due to reason: Instant access capable copy not found" I have testing Instant access for the VM used to scan the image and it is not possible to use IA. I know that VMware workload type is compatible with malware scan, but I wonder if actually the image need to reside on MSDP storage server instead of OST storage server. I dont find any compatibility document regarding this, have you experienced this problem?.

We have a flex 5360, and we duplicate to an access 3350 We have been seeing performance issues, and they were resolved by changing the xmit_hash_policy layers By default it is layer2, needs to be changed to layer3+4! ssh to flex, run "support shell" command to get limited shell cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0 BONDING_OPTS="mode=802.3ad miimon=100 xmit_hash_policy=layer3+4" If you don't have the layer3+4, you are not using all your outbound NICS! Our flex was setup by Veritas and even after almost a year of calls for issues no one realized this was configured less than optimally! I am seeing tremendous improvement in throughput after making the change and rebooting my flex.Genericus8 days agoModerator80Views1like2CommentsLow replication speed between Netbackup domains
Good afternoon! There is a problem. There is a low data transfer rate between the main Netbackup domain and the remote Netbackup domain. The transfer rate is approximately 5-10% of the total channel bandwidth. Low speed is observed when performing backup vmware, file system, and, finally, -auto image replication. The probable cause of low speed through the data transfer channel is latency. Perhaps colleagues have experience working with a channel that has high latencies? What transport and application level parameters are applied, including? What set of Multi-Threaded Agent parameters do colleagues use? Please share your experience. For information. Parameters for nbd transport, which are applied on media servers: \Common Files\VERITAS\VxMS\Shared\VDDK\bin\VixDiskLib.ini vixDiskLib.nfcAio.Session.BufSizeIn64KB = 16 vixDiskLib.nfcAio.Session.BufCount = 4AndriiPushkarov8 days agoLevel 567Views0likes1CommentWORM Instance in Flex Appliance
Hi guys, We are about to deploy a Flex Appliance WORM instance, and we have some concerns regarding its usage : Do we still need a MediaServer instance when using the WORM instance? Is the WORM instance considered as WORM storage that still requires a MediaServer instance to write to it, or is it an all-in-one instance (MediaServer + WORM storage)? In summary, when creating the WORM instance, does NBU recognize it as a MediaServer or not? When working with WORM, is deduplication still utilized? Typically, we create MSDP volumes within MediaServer instances. Wondering if WORM uses also Dedup. Does enabling WORM impact the appliance's capacity consumption? Some other vendors claim that enabling WORM can double or even triple capacity usage when using Dedup with WORM, which raises concerns about its practicality in our case, because the capacity of our Flex system is already low, and if that's the case, we'll have to avoid using WORM. Thanks in advance for any feedback given. Regards.Solved176Views0likes6CommentsCustomized Amazon Provider doesn't list bucket in disk pool wizard
