Hello,
I am currently working to restore a small directory. During the restore process the job has failed due to insufficient space to stage. I was able to get the job to complete. But, I had to build a 1TB drive on my SAN and attach it to my Backup Exec Media server via iSCSI. During the restore job the SAN became completely bogged down and would not allow users to log into their virtual environments. The restore is going from TAPE to a Redirected File location on the Media Server. Backed up Drive Size where the Directory resides is 1.4TB. During the restore there were no other jobs running on the Backup Exec Media Server.
Question 1: How much data needs to be staged?
Question 2: Do I need to stage Data? (Is there a way to set up my restorations to be direct?)
Question 3: Is it normal for a restoration using my configuration to bog down the entire SAN?
Backup Exec Software Version
Backup Exec Media Server Information
Dell TL2000 Autoloader
Dell Compellent SAN
