Storage options for OS upgrade
Hello, we have a NetBackup 10.4 server that we need to upgrade the OS from rhel 7 to rhel 9. Currently the MSDP is on the same disk that the OS will target (/dev/sda) so I need to copy/relocate the backup images during the upgrade. I opened a case with support and they suggested mounting SAN storage. Is this the only option to duplicate the backup data, or can we use DAS/NFS for setting up a new AdvDisk? This particular host has no other drives in it to relocate the data to, so it will need to be off the host during upgrade. Thank you

WORM Instance in Flex Appliance
Hi guys, We are about to deploy a Flex Appliance WORM instance, and we have some concerns regarding its usage : Do we still need a MediaServer instance when using the WORM instance? Is the WORM instance considered as WORM storage that still requires a MediaServer instance to write to it, or is it an all-in-one instance (MediaServer + WORM storage)? In summary, when creating the WORM instance, does NBU recognize it as a MediaServer or not? When working with WORM, is deduplication still utilized? Typically, we create MSDP volumes within MediaServer instances. Wondering if WORM uses also Dedup. Does enabling WORM impact the appliance's capacity consumption? Some other vendors claim that enabling WORM can double or even triple capacity usage when using Dedup with WORM, which raises concerns about its practicality in our case, because the capacity of our Flex system is already low, and if that's the case, we'll have to avoid using WORM. Thanks in advance for any feedback given. Regards.

setup Malware Scanning
Hi I have some questions: in NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide doc said: For BYO setup, Instant access must be configured on MSDP storage server See the "Configuring Universal share" section in Veritas NetBackup Deduplication Guide 1- what's MSDP BYO? if MSDP server is windows, is it BYO? in Veritas NetBackup Deduplication Guide doc said: MSDP build-your-own (BYO) server prerequisites and hardware requirements to configure universal shares: The universal share feature is supported on an MSDP BYO storage server with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6 or later. The universal share feature is not supported on SUSE Linux. 2- if windos is BYO too, then how about Malware Scanning? is it possible or I should deploy Redhat MSDP??? I have a windows MSDP to backup vmware vms with accelerator feature and want to deploy Malware scanning Thanks in advance

Compactation taking too long?
Hello! We have a 30T MSDP with 70% used, we expire a lot of images recently but the storage wouldn't go down, so the next logical step was to run de compactation via CRCONTROL, but it's taking too long? I started the proccess 2 days ago and it's still compacting, but the storage don't seems to respond to this. What am I doing wrong? the logs seems fine (I think...) July 20 11:14:46 INFO [000000078C403640]: COMPACT: instance 0: release space 11837480 from container 4879606 July 20 11:14:59 INFO [000000078C403640]: COMPACT: instance 0: release space 13771159 from container 4879607 July 20 11:15:07 INFO [000000078C403640]: COMPACT: instance 0: release space 7164343 from container 4879609 July 20 11:15:23 INFO [000000078C403640]: COMPACT: instance 0: release space 4810206 from container 4879611 July 20 11:15:23 INFO [000000078C403640]: COMPACT: instance 0: release space 0 from container 4879612 July 20 11:15:23 INFO [000000078C403640]: COMPACT: instance 0: release space 0 from container 4879614 Please send help.
