NBU restore VMs from AIR_Gapped DR site into Main site
we are checking the possibility to restore a VM from AIR_Gap replication location back into the main site's Vcenter1 main site: NBU1+Vcenter1 DR site: NBU2+Vcenter2 VM initially resides on Vcenter1 of main site, NBU 10.2.0.1 (flex instance) takes backup of this VM and replicate its backup image to WORM in DR (NBU2). in case we got disaster in main site and NBU1 in main site is crashed, can we restore the VM from WORM/AIR-Gap (NBU2) into Vcenter1? is it only that we need to add Vcenter1 into NBU2? thanks,
Slow Windows file server cluster backup performance
Dear community, We are using NetBackup version 9.1.0.1 and were previously backing up two physical HP servers running Windows Server 2008 R2 shared data volumes without any issue. We have then migrated to two virtual nodes running Windows Server 2019 under VMware and backup performance is total chaos. Backing up 2GB of data takes 2 hours! We're using VSS and the NetBackup agent is installed on both virtual nodes, since backing them up using VMware native capabilities is not possible because we're using bus sharing (RDM disks). We have already opened a case with Veritas but the support agent is totally lost in the troubleshooting process. Do you have any ideas as to why this is happening and if we're doing things in the right way? I can share additional configuration data or logs if that helps! Thanks a lot and have a lovely week!
Install vCenter HTML5 plugin without GUI
Hi! We have a setup with a RHEL7 Master server and two 5250 appliances. It's used for a vSphere 7 plaform. We'd like the HTML Plugin installed, but I can't find an instruction for how to install it without a GUI. Our Master server runs without a GUI, and running the vwcp_manage requires a GUI.. Any ideas?Virtual Machine Backups Suddenly Got Slow
Hello, In December, our backups of VMWare full virtual machines suddenly slowed way down. At that time a staff admin recreated datastores and bumped the VMFS version from 5 to 6. There were no other changes that I'm aware of. Agent based backups run fine. Only Virtual machine backups run poorly now. It doesn't matter whether I backup to disk or tape, they never achieve a rate above 300 MB/min. Ideas on where the bottleneck is? Something is limiting the communication from Backup Exec to vCenter. I have a case open with support, but they are not figuring it out. I run BE 21.4 on a physical Windows 2016 server. Backup targets are NAS appliances and direct attached SAS tape drives. The server has teamed NIC that connect to three VLAN's: data to servers, second to NAS appliances, and third to underlying SAN appliances that host our VMWare environment. Our VMWare is old: 6.5. Thanks for your help. RayBackup VM with TAG Failed to obtain SSO certificate using VMwarre vCloud Suite APIs
Hi, I have a problem with NetBackup and Vmware Backup using TAG Name in VIP Policy, Recently, we are defined an TAG in Vcenter server, and add to one VM to test the TAG Filter in vmware VIP policy. When i run a Backup, we get this error: Failed to obtain SSO certificate using VMware vCloud Suite APIs, msg = [com.vmware.vapi.client.exception.SslException: Host name '' dies not match the certificate subject provided by the peer (CN=XXXXX, OU=XXXX, L=XXXX, ST=XXXX, C=XX)] display name = [<VM>], server = [<Vcenter>], nbu status = 114, severity = 2. The Vcenter have an external PSC, but i can see an successfull registry en PSC Log file, asociated to vmware user used in NetBackup. We tested the name resolution from netbackup and Vcenter side, we tested the connection between port TCP/443, and we tested the ntp sincronitzation between all components (Master Server, Media Server, Vcenter and PSC). ¿Anyone have any ideas where the problem may be? Thanks so much,
Agentless Recovery Log - Failed to Restore
Good afternoon. Yesterday I carried out an agentless VMware recovery. The recovery was only partially completed, of the 342,000 files 76 were not restored. Is there a log that will give me a list of the 76 files that were not restored? I have been looking in /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/tar/agentless/ but cannot find a definitive list of the failed files. Thank you.Falha ao realizar restore
