About Pure Disk
Hi All, Kindly let me know the following few questions about pure disk. 1)what is pure disk? 2)About pure disk architecture? 3)About pure disk deduplication? 4)About pure disk web user interface? 5)Can i know the role of vssadminlist writers related to system state backup failures in pure disk.Solved3.8KViews3likes2CommentsSystem state failures in pure disk
Hello All, it was windows 2008 r1 Client backup is failing with system state(completing with 64%), and getting below errors. Error: 2: resource child process: snapshot required but there is nothing to snap: no such object Error: 2: name process: unable to process 'Shadow?Copy?Components': no such object troubleshooting steps: We have been checked all writers are in stable state, But still backup is failing with system state error. Kindly let us know what was the next troubleshooting step to proceed from here. pure disk version is V6.6.4 Thanks.3KViews0likes4CommentsHow to Modify the Puredisk agent Configuration for large backups?
Hi guys We are backing up 100 approx clients, and many of them are Linux Clients , so due to large backups size we want to modify the pure disk agent for linux configuration, as we have space problem on most of the linux clients, We are using PureDisk 6.5.1.2 So kindly help me and give me the command to modify the pdagent configuration as large backups are there.Solved2.5KViews1like2CommentsMSDP encryption (ServerOptions=agent_crypt) (or should it be =encrypt)
Hi Forum, Page 30 of the NetBackup Deduplication Guide v7.5 says that... by default MSDP encryption is disabled by default, but they it is recommended by Symantec. Page 70 says that to enable encryption that we need to add "agent_crypt" to "ServerOptions=" in the ContentRouter.cfg file. But looking at the comments in the file: ; [no]agent_crypt : always disable/enable client-side encryption; ; [no]encrypt : always disable/enable encryption; ...indicates that using "agent_crypt" instructs the client-side deduplication agent to encrypt data. At our site we are not implementing client side deduplication so it woudl seem to me that setting :agent_crypt" won't have any effect. My questions are: 1) Is "agent_crypt" really the option to use if what we are trying to achieve is encryption of the post-dedupe blocks on teh MSDP data storage local to teh MSDP media server? 2) What does the "ServerOptions=encrypt" option do, and how is it different to "agent_crypt" ? 3) If we can determine which option really does enable post-dedupe encryption - then does anyone know what the CPU overhead is ? 4) Are there any particular models of CPU (SPARC or Intel or AMD) that implement the encryption/decryption in their hardware instruction sets - i.e. are there any CPUs that are much better suited for use with MSDP encryption ? Thanks, Dave.Solved1.8KViews1like4Comments
