Best solution to back up Citrix Xen Server
Hello, I am wondering what the best solution would be for the following: I have on Citrix Xen Server host that has 7 virtual machines on it. I am currently using PHD Virtual to back this up to a NAS. I am looking to move to different software for the backups. One of the virtual machines is running SQL and one is running AD and DNS. There is also one physical server that has AD, DNS, and DHCP on it that i would also like to back up in the same solution. What i was curious about is what is the best way to back all of this up? Is it Back Up Exec or System Restore? Or would neither work? I am looking for something that will back up to the existng NAS and allow for item level restores as well as fast restores of full VM's if ever needed. Second question is, assuming one of the two products will work is it best practice to install it on its own server or could it be installed on teh physical that is existing with AD, DNS and DHCP? I am assuming its own server and that is what i would shoot for, but for the sake of saving money i like to know my options. Thank you for your assistance.Solved1.3KViews0likes2CommentsDB2 backup are writing to wrong policy
DB2 backup are going to the wrong policy, for example if backup was initiated from PRD_PORDB2_DB2_D_Full policy. Data will be recieved by PRD_PORDB2_DB2_M_Full. My goal is to keep different retentions for DB2 backups. And since data is going to the default-applicaiton-backup schedule, multiple policies are requered. db2.conf DATABASE JCRDB OBJECTTYPE DATABASE POLICY PRD_PORDB2_DB2_M_Full SCHEDULE Default-Application-Backup ENDOPER DATABASE JCRDB OBJECTTYPE DATABASE POLICY PRD_PORDB2_DB2_W_Full SCHEDULE Default-Application-Backup ENDOPER DATABASE JCRDB OBJECTTYPE DATABASE POLICY PRD_PORDB2_DB2_D_Full SCHEDULE Default-Application-Backup ENDOPER DATABASE JCRDB OBJECTTYPE ARCHIVE POLICY PRD_PORDB2_DB2_Arch SCHEDULE Default-Application-Backup ENDOPER DATABASE JCRDB OBJECTTYPE DATABASE POLICY PRD_PORDB2_DB2_M_Full SCHEDULE Default-Application-Backup ENDOPER DATABASE JCRDB OBJECTTYPE DATABASE POLICY PRD_PORDB2_DB2_W_Full SCHEDULE Default-Application-Backup ENDOPER DATABASE JCRDB OBJECTTYPE DATABASE POLICY PRD_PORDB2_DB2_D_Full SCHEDULE Default-Application-Backup ENDOPER DATABASE JCRDB OBJECTTYPE ARCHIVE POLICY PRD_PORDB2_DB2_Arch SCHEDULE Default-Application-Backup ENDOPERSolved1.3KViews1like4CommentsBackup SAP with DB2 Network connection timed error
