MSDP 2 MSDP duplication
I am participating in a project where I have to free up a MSDP storage server (running on NBA 5350). Backup images which are stored on this MSDP are duplicated (optimized duplication) to other NBA, within the same NBU domain, this time 5240. Both appliances are running 5.3.0.1 SP1 MR2, and have the same patch installed: NBAPP_EEB_ET4145974-5.3.0.1-6.x86_64. After initially seeding this target appliance 5240 with few days of backups, I cut over the backups directed to 5350 and repointed these to 5240 - played around with the SLPs. The problem that was faced is that source MSDP on 5350 was occupied ca. 120 TB. Now after a week after backups are cut off and not having all backup images being duplicated to target 5240 MSDP, that target pool is occupied in 174 TB. We are running out of disk space on target MSDP, no one knows why we see such an increase in the disk occupancy. IMHO target MSDP should not occupy more than - let's say - 130 TB. Do you have any idea as to why we see such discrepancy from our anticipation and real world?91Views0likes9CommentsNetBackup advise to list backedup images with size on MSDP disk pool
Hi All, We have a Veritas NetBackup 8.0 domain with muliple MSDPs, currently disk usage on one of our disk pools - MSDP (5230 Appliance) has crossed threshold (>86% full), having added a new disk shelf recently few months ago. Customer is now looking for a report for last two months showing list of backup images stored on this disk pool, date of backup, along with size of each image, disk pool name, client name, policy name, date of backup. Idea is to determine which client has used up most of the space on the disk pool and on what date. I have tried running some reports on OpsCenter with built-in and a bit of customization but was unsuccessful. I also have tried the scripts here in this post specifically - "Actual data written by policy by date" but no luck. https://vox.veritas.com/t5/Downloads/OpsCenter-common-custom-reports/ta-p/809039 It would be mush appreciated if gurus here can help with a SQL Query to run on OpsCenter or guide any other way to pull this report.
