Hello!
We are currently setup using SSO to backup over the SAN. We are getting a ton of HBA tine-outs, which fortunately, arenât hurting our backups but which I believe is related to how the devices are configured in the SAN.
Can anyone help me with specific Visios, diagrams and so forth to answer the following questions:
1- What devices need to see what. In other words, do all the SSO media servers need to see the robot? Or just the Master server.
2- What should the zoning look like. In other words, in the zone should I have the Master, the Tape Drives the Robot and the hosts?
We are running:
1-Windows 2000/2003.
2-We do not have dedicated Backup SAN. The data and tape go through the same HBAs.
3-HBA are a combo of new 2gb QLOGICâs and 1 GB LP8000.
4-Netbackup 4.5 FP6.
What I would like to do is zone it to where the media servers donât see the robot. Only the master server. But Iâm not too sure that when using the SSO option, if the media server need to control the robot. I canât find any specific documentation that explains how this really works.
Thanks,
TV
