Netbackup 7.5 with VMware backup via ISCSI issue
Hello all,
Now I am evaluating the backup solution. I set up a lab with following details:
1. one Master Server - Netbackup 7.5.0.3
2. one Media Server - Netbackup 7.5.0.3 + Media Server deduplication
3. one VC with VSphere ESXi 4.1
4. one FreeNAS 7.1 with ISCSI enable
The media server deduplication work great. Now i am integrating with the VMware VStorage API but got some issues. The backup failed after created snapshot in VC. I had a 20GB ISCSI disk assign to both VC and Master/Media server, FYI.
in VC:
in Master/Media server:
The job error log:
datastore are to be zoned to backuphost through which backup would happen. It can be either master/media or vcenter server.
generally vcenter is preferred and is made media server with tape drive and data store zoing for san backup.
i can see from first snap seems that 20 GB iscsi LUN on master is initialized which it shouldn't be.. read my last post
Regarding assigning those Data Stores to Backup host, we strictly rely on zoning , we do not want those LUNs to be initialized , or mounted
check if this helps
