Hello Folks, Greetings for the day. We have many small/large NetBackup environments that we would like to start NetBackup version upgrade on. The NetBackup Master Server is a physical server with either Windows or Linux OS on it. We have environments where we have been using Data Domain for short-term backup and then vault them off to tapes for longer retention. In some of our environments, we also have NBU appliances being used as media servers. Many environments have all devices viz. NBU Master Server (Physical Server), NBU Media Server(Physical Server), Data Domain(Appliance), NBU Appliances, Ops-Center(Virtual Machine) in there together. Could you please guide us the correct sequence which should be followed for Upgrading NBU environment to NBU 7.7.3 ? We know the basic sequence of proceeding with Ops-center first, then NBU Master Servers, then NBU media servers, then clients, but the involvement of appliances has been adding complexities to the whole upgradation process, especially when it requires upgrading 3rd party appliancs like Data Domain. I will be furnishing more details about individual's version but at some point, we have found ourseleves stuck up on whether to upgrade DD first or NBU Master Server first. In our environment, we need to upgrade both, the DDOS and DDboost plungin. EMC has suggested to upgrade DDOS to Version on 5.5.4.10 and ddboost plugin to 3.1.x. The upgrade path is 5.0/5.1 to 5.2 to 5.5.4.10. So we are pretty confused as to go with DD OS / DDBoost plugin upgrade first and then NetBackup upgrade on some other day or all to be performed on the same day? Also, can we ourseleves upgrade the DD OS/DD Boost or EMC TSE needs to perform the same ? The NetBackup Master Server version is little different in all of the environments w.r.t patches installed over and above 7.5 version. Ops-center is Ops-Center Analytics ver 7.6.0.1 on VMware virtual machine running Windows 2012 OSmanaging all of the different Master Backup servers. ======================================================= There are many but to start off with, two of our NBU environments have below configuration:-> NBU Environment 1 Data Domain Model number: DD610 Data Domain OS 5.0.1.0-240411 Master Server NBU version installed: 7.5.0.5 Master Server OS : windows 2008 R2 Current plugin installed:- 2.3.1.0-223945 Media Servers: N/A Tape Library/Robot: N/A Data Domain: Configured as single Disk Pool NBU Environment 2 Model number: DD620 Data Domain OS 5.1.1.0-291218 Master Server NBU version installed: 7.5.0.4 Master Server OS : windows 2008 R2 Current plugin Version: 2.4.1.0-289644 Media Servers: N/A Tape Library/Robot: N/A Data Domain: Configured as single Disk Pool ================================================================== Please let me know if you need any more info from our side.4.1KViews0likes7Commentsbackup - allocation failed (10) - but enough memory

HI All, So we started with Backup Exec 14 few years back and I've updated to BE 16 last week with latest patch due to following issue when Symantec could not resolve it. Issue: When backup up VM's, there are lot of Temporary folders been created in folder C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Data. (Folders name include VM's name and date ), and number of folders been created keep growing everyday. Troubleshoot done: I've logged a call with Symantec and for a week they did troubleshooting and today an Advanced tech called me and advised that this is a known issue and only work-around is to delete these folders manually ? Now I have had the same above issue while we were on BE 15, with all the patches installed, hence why I quickly upgraded to BE 16 to see if that resolve the issue. Symantec advance support tech directed me to this article ( https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.000023219 ) which is according to the article was an issue on BE 2014. So I don't believe that Backup Exec 16 will have this now, will it ? And I can't accept an answer been deleting these folder manually every day as a solution. Does anyone experienced this kind of issue ? Cheers3.3KViews0likes3CommentsSaaS Backup
Hello, I have some questions regarding SaaS backup for Office 365 that i didn't find in the documentations The backup is done up to six times per day: depending on what? what triggers the backup? can it be performed manually? When "Automatically add all new accounts to the backup" is checked, how are the new accounts detected and are they backed up automatically or do we have to wait till the next scheduled backup. Is it correct that "point in time restore" means that we can go back to any version of a given backed up file? Thank you3.1KViews0likes2CommentsBackup for OpenStack cloud
Hi All, Now a days there is lot of buzz about OpenStack cloud. I would like to check how can we deploy Backup infrastrucute in an OpenStack cloud enviornment. One way is like building backup domain (with Master, media, storage and client) in each tenant. 2nd way, putting Master server outisde of each tenant and just - Media, Storage inside tenant to backup tenant VMs as shown in diagram. in this case Tenant VMs have to connect to master server via Media agent and vice versa. Have anyone deployed OpenStack cloud in thier enviornment and which backup software has been deployed. Does Netbackup or any other backup software supports KVM hypervisor to take image level snapshot of VMs?3KViews0likes6Commentsbackupexecmanagementservice.exe consumes all available RAM
I have a recent problem starting to occur on Backup Exec 2016. The Backupexec Management Service starts consuming all the RAM, then it fills the pagefile.sys which consumes all capacity on my C drive. The service normally runs at@100k RAM, but when this apparent memory leak occurs, it consumes all 24GB RAM, plus all my pagefile. Has anyone else experienced this error and what was the fix please? Any help much appeciated!Solved3KViews0likes6CommentsHow to backup/restore SysVol on a domain controller w Netbackup
How can we backup and restore from the locationC:\Windows\SYSVOL on our domain controllers? In the backup policy we have it set to do a full backup and if you browse the directory structure it shows all the contents of this folder. However, when you try to run a restore from the server it shows this folder as being empty. We have the Netbackup Client Service running on those servers as a local domain admin account. Those servers also have "Netbackup Legacy Client Service" (not sure what the difference is) which is also running with a local domain admin account. I have also tried enabling Granular Recovery and Cross mount points on the backup policy, but still having the same issue. Our Netbackup admin console is ver 8.1.22.9KViews0likes4CommentsDuplicate Jobs
Hi, I have a question that might not be easy to explain but I'll give it a try. I have some tapes from specific media sets that are shortly used because the backups spreaded amongst them and I would like to free some of those tapes by creating duplicate jobs that would concentrate the backup sets on only a few tapes. My question is, if I duplicate a media set that is spreaded across two tapes into another one, will it copy only the backup set I chose from a specific tape or will it copy the begining of that backup set that was written in another tape too? Because if that happens, I'll end up having duplicate data and I don't want that, I just want to free som tapes that have little data written on them, like the end of a backup set, so I can use them on other media sets I have for new backups. Hope I made myself clear. Thanks!Solved2.7KViews0likes6Comments
