adding a secondary disk pool/storage unit
NBU 7.7.3
the disks i ordered for NBU server are still held up but some disks arrived for our Hyper-V server. since this Hyper-V server will be take some time to be commissioned, i thought of temporarily using it as another RHEL 6.x server with xfs partition (same as my PureDisk).
I will then have a 4TB partition available to me temporarily. Can I mount this as my second PureDisk, add it to NBU disk pools eventually as a second storage unit? I will mount it remotely to my NBU server.
will NBU use this to store backup images to disk and then use it also for duplication jobs to tape?
replying to myself. yes doable.
i'll deploy a Windows based media server so it's easier when it comes to drivers of the hard disks. :-)
