Netbackup 7 - N5000 Appliance and PureDisk Client
A client of mine has bought the following;
72TB |
Symc Netbackup Platform Base 7.0 Xplat 1 Front End Tbyte Std Lic Rewards Band E |
72TB |
Symc Netbackup Platform Deduplication option add-on 7.0 xplat 1 front end tbyte std lic |
2 x Symantec N5000 Appliances 16TB Addressable (backup through-put of upto 4.3TB/Hr)
Question: The primary data approx 46TB is sitting on Clariion CX 480 storage (iSCSI) and 16 TB is at 6 remote locations (TOTAL 60TB). The half of 46TB is VMware (VMs).
The link between the 6 remote sites is 100MB each.
Client is also implementing EV at Primary (hitting the remote File / Exchange servers) which would hopefully reduce the remote backup target sizes upto 50%. The archived data (Vaults) will be at Centerra which we do not need to backup.
Objective: Client wants to utlise these 2 appliances to backup the data which hasnt been archived.
What is the best design in this scenario?
- Do I need PureDisk client license for client side deduplication? and if it is covered under the above license?
- Backup the storage through NDMP
- Backup the VMs through AVVI
- How to achieve tape less environment?
