Hi,
I am currently trying to understand the way BE 12.5 (with SSO, CASO, NMDP agents) is setup in my new company. I've worked with BE from 9.1 - 11d back in my old company but never had experience with SAN, SSO or CASO.
I can see from the back of the cabinets that the 2 NetApp servers have FC HBAs connected to Brocade 200E FC switch. The CASO/BE Media Server and the tape library are also connected to the same FC switch. I'm told that with this setup, backing up of NetApps will be faster as it will use the FC connectivity.
Is the backup to these NetApp devices still go through LAN or throught the faster SAN (Brocade FC switch)?
Just to give you an idea. In one backup job (backing up shared folders of NetApp) the job rate is 3,614.72 MB/Min.
Grateful if someone provide more info.
Solved! Go to Solution.
