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 6.5.5 pools 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 are nbstproxy processes. Appreciate on any assistance. Thank you.Solved4.1KViews0likes2Comments
Universal Restore
Hello all, This is my first post ever to a forum and I believe it's a bit of a problem. I work for a small IT Support firm. We have a customer that has a few C&C machines that run from the blueprints and software off of Window 7 machines. We were notified by manufacture of the machines there is a voltage flux in the machines that are prone to destorying the PCs connected to the machine. Our customer would like us to take an image of the computers and be able to reinstall the images taken on new hardware, computers that have different hardware configurations, all without losing any information, programs and computer OS. I'm looking for ideas on how this can be done. I've read it can be done, just not sure how to approach the problem, so I'm looking for some ideas. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Solved3.4KViews0likes1CommentUnable to change SMTP setting in Puredisk 6.6.5
According to p220 in the "Symantec NetBackup PureDisk™ Backup Operator Guide Release 6.6.4" and my own experiance (on other SPA's). The SMTP setting for event/policy escalations is set in the Gui at Settings>Configuration>Configuration File Templates> PureDisk Server Agent> Default ValueSet for Puredisk Server Agent>mail>smtpserver This is seperate from the SMTP settings in the Puredisk topology. When I attempt to change the IP of the SMTP server I get an error. I have also tried deleting the entry and recreating it but get a similiar outcome. I looked through the Puredisk CLI manual but can not find a CLI way of changing this setting. Here is what the error looks like In the web page.

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.Solved3.8KViews3likes2CommentsSLP Duplication Behaviour
Master Server ( nbu01 ) Windows 2008 NetBackup Master 7.5.0.7 Media Server ( nbu02 ) Window 2008 NetBackup Media 7.5.0.7 MSDP with puredisk Setup storage server load balancing for dedupe pool nbu01 and nbu02 setup SLP backup to disk then duplicate to tape both nbu01 and nbu02 connected to the same tape library ofcourse with SSO enable All backup and duplication went well but found out that during duplication to tape, always server nbu01 trigger to job even the tape storage unit is connected to nbu02. I want to know if duplication job trigger from nbu01, let say backup image is 100GB, from the dedupe guide, it say that it will always rehydrate the data where the dedupe pool server is, so means nbu02, so do this means that it will send 100GB data to nbu01, then nbu01 will send back 100GB of data back to nbu02, because i select tape storage unit that connected to the nbu02, and write to tape. If above is true, means my bottleneck will be at the LAN, and how do i force only use nbu02 during duplication job. I also planning to remove the load balancing, since i dont see much help on the backup and duplication, but i still have job queuing for duplication. If i inactive those job, remove the nbu01 from the load balancing, and activate backup duplication, will the duplication job still look for nbu01 ? or i need to cancel all job, and do manual duplication ? anyone please help.1.3KViews0likes2CommentsSpool and Spad are not starting -2106
