Hello,
We use Flashbackup feature to backup our file servers with tons of files and folders. We are quite happy with FlashBackup performance when it concerns backup jobs.It fits our RPO/RTO well. As for restores from images that were created by FlashBackup, we can sucessfully restore small amount of data ( a couple of small files or a tiny-sized directory). But when it comes with restore of folders containing 100+ files and that have 100Gb+ in size we expirience
1)poor restore performance in comparison with file restores
2)various kinds of errors either general status code 5 or more specific TAR-related status code 185.
Also bare in mind that we tried to restore not an entire partition but a group of folders.
I've got two questions regarding this issue:
1. Does FlashBackup fit for restoring a substantial part of data?
2. Have anybody of you out there expirienced this sort of problems before?
