Weekly full backups are staged to an EMC Data Domain basic disk staging storage unit. Staging to a 6 drive LTO4 robot is triggered by a schedule at 3PM which takes more than the sheduled window to complete. Tape-only policies that are sceduled at 1...
I replaced hardware for a media server according to TECH77811 and am now getting much slower throughput on tape backups. The master is Linux RHEL 6.3 running NB 7.6.0.4. Original media server was Solaris 10 SUN FIRE X4270 with 4X1GB aggregate NIC, ...
I have the following exclude_list and include_list, yet /usr, /tmp, /var/tmp, /var/lib/mysql, /dev and core files were backed up in their entirety. /sys and /gluster_volume were excluded (as desired) Should I end directories with /? File select...
It appears (in others posts) that using Data Domain appliances with Netbackup requires the NB Advanced Disk licence, but when reading through the EMC docs on DD Boost for OST administartion, there's no mention of it. The only requirement is that the...
After upgrading from 6.5.4 (solaris) to 7.5 RHEL (see steps below), our catalog no longer shows files (through BAR GUI) on backups done prior to the upgrade. Only empty dierctories are shown in BAR. This occurs on RHEL prod master only. On Solaris 7...
Some observations:disk-to-tape duplication has been running for the past few days. Duplication speed is on average at 70 Mb/s. This is fine until concurrent to-disk Incrementals kick in at 8 PM ... at this point, duplication speeds fall drastical...
Media server is running out of memory and CPU load has increased from 9 yesterday to 15 today...Duplications are slow... backups to DD are running slow at 10MB/sfree -mtotal used free shared buffers cachedMem: 64386 63867 519 0 468 59777-/+ buffers/c...
bptm logs on the media server does show Kbytes/sec for every copy 2 job, and I see much variation, so I calculated average Kbytes/sec on 54 jobs for this week's and last week's duplications and I get a 25% increase in speed from ajusting buffer size...
KEEP_JOBS_HOURS = 240 in the master's bp.conf gives 10 days of activity monitor logs, but the duplication logs are not kept that long. why?Below is details of one such log from activity monitor:Nov 21, 2017 3:12:38 PM - requesting resource media_ser...
Why don't duplication jobs display kb/sec information?Also, why are activity monitor job logs from last week's duplications lost? I keep 10 days of logs in my activity monitor. I know I can certainly acces the info from OpsCenter, but need I say th...
