Client - Media - PureDisk Linux network traffic
Hello everyone. We have a backup solution and I am trying to find a bottleneck. Configuration is as follows: Veritas SFHA clustered Master server running NBU 7.5.0.6 on RHEL6.1. Number of Media servers. And 3 pairs of PureDisk 6.5.5pools as a storage servers. My concern is: How does network traffic flow during backup assuming clientside deduplication is enabled? I tried tcpdump and appears that it is client - media - puredisk and vica-versa. But there arenbstproxy processes. Appreciate on any assistance. Thank you.Solved4.1KViews0likes2CommentsDeduplication : PureDisk software appliance vs 5020 hardware appliance

CLI Command For Dedup Rates
NBU Experts, Do any of you know if there is a CLI command that can tell the dedup rate for all the images created, and stored in a PureDisk pool? For examaple, if I run bpimagelist on the master server I get some good info, but not the dedup rate for each image. Thanks, AVazquez2.6KViews0likes7Comments

Hallo. Hoffentlich kann mir jemand von Euch helfen :-) Über "Configure Disk Storage Server" wurde auf einem Media Server ein MSDP Storage Server eingerichtet. Danach wollte ich über "Configure Disk Pool" einen PureDisk Diskpool anlegen. Dabei habe die Fehlermeldung -> "The operation timed out. The operation has exceeded the time out limit, though the service or daemon may still be processing the request. (195)" Hier die neuen ( großen ) Filesysteme -> Sind XFS Filesysteme unter REL5.9 /dev/mapper/MSDB-lv_MSDB 60T 416M 60T 1% /MSDB /dev/mapper/MSDBdb-lv_MSDBdb 7.5T 38M 7.5T 1% /MSDBdb - Sind die Filesystem vielleicht zu groß für Netbackup, bzw. Puredisk? - Gibt es bekannte Limitierungen?

Hello, This is my first post. We have two NetBackup 7.0.1 servers. Both W2008R2 ent. Both VMs. We use MSDP feature. Both servers have 10Tb drives to hold images. Catalog backup jobs are configured. Key file is copied over the network to another DC. Catalog restore process is clear for me. The question is: Are there any additional steps to restore CRDB? 10Tb drives? Could you please provide best practice/manual? Thank you in advance.Solved2.1KViews0likes2Comments
