NBU 6.5.4 Catalog maintenance
Hi gang,
I'm looking for opinions on NBU catalog maintenance.
Is compressing the catalog (Global Attributes) a good idea? if so, at what interval? any gotcha's or issues?
I'm planning to set this to 16 days to compress data that's more than a few weeks old. When we do restore jobs, it's typically from the most recent or the previous most recent backups. We rarely need to go back more than that..
Also, how often should the catalog be "Archived" (referring to the "Archiving the catalog" section of the admin guide)?
I'm planning to do it once per year. can it be done more frequently? How do you determine how often to do it? Does it archive the catalog to tape, or move to another disk (or does it depend on the special catarc policy defninition)? any gotcha's or problems?
thanks!
