Insight into insights: The value of improved clarity in IT
With clarity, you can identify what you have—true awareness of resources, storage, and workloads—and the meaningful details of each, including inefficiencies and what is and is not protected. With clarity, you can target overutilized and underutilized CPUs and assets, high water mark and orphan storage, and even Skunkworks projects. And probably most important—with clarity you can command a complete understanding of your organization's business-critical applications and systems and develop and test reliable disaster recovery plans.
Introducing Instant Cloud Recovery in Veritas Backup Exec 20.2 powered by Azure
In Veritas Backup Exec 20.2 we are introducing the next level of Azure integration with Instant Cloud Recovery (ICR) powered by Azure Site Recovery. With Instant Cloud Recovery (ICR) Backup Exec users can create automatically updated off-site replicas of Virtual Machines in the Azure cloud for a quick failover in case of a disaster.
Azure Cloud Connector - Storage Warning (V-275-1017) - Unable to connect to the OpenStorage device
Hi all, We are attempting to configure a "Back Up to Disk and then Duplicate to Cloud" job. We have an Azure Tenancy in place already, which is in use for other services. When configuring the Cloud Storage, we receive the below error: "Azure: azure. azure.com:%server% - Unable to connect to the OpenStorage device. Ensure that the network is properly configured between the device and the Backup Exec server." It refers you to Article V-275-1017, however, this does not actually exist anywhere! It seems to relate to an issue with named proxies. If we allow proxy-bypass (or use a transparent proxy) the Cloud Storage configured correctly and shows Online, and can be used ok. However, if the proxy is named and explicitly detailed, then the storage cannot be created. If you create storage with a tranparent proxy, but then set a named proxy after the creation, the storage shows as Offline. Has anyone else seen an issue with named proxies, using Cloud Storage? This is a real issue as we have multiple sites that cannot use a direct connection, or transparent proxy. Thanks Graham
