BackupExec deduplication manager service failed to start
Hi all I have a backupexec appliance 3600 R4 wint BE15. This appliance is EOX, I know it, but our client maintains this old infraestructure and now I have a problem. This appliance had 2 disks failed and the the RAID was offline. Our client bought the 2 disks and we replace that on the appliance. The rebuilding RAID process was apparently successful and now on the appliance web UI show us all disks online an also the RAID. But now, when I try to start the BackupExec services I have this error for BackupExec deduplication manager: I can see this detailed status on Windows EventViewer: But when I try to verify the D:\Appliance_Dedupe\etc\pdregistry.cfg file I can't access to the folder (D:\Appliance_Dedupe is the appliance's deduplication folder): Anyone can help me with this? Thanks in advance. Regards Toño1.3KViews0likes3CommentsVERITAS NETBACKUP WITH RED HAT CEPH STORAGE
We are using netbackup with ceph storage where ceph is presented to the media servers as a MSDP. Since MSDP has limitations of one pool per media and a sizing limit of 96 TB, we are planning to use CEPH as a S3 - backup target for the new media servers we have to configure. I want to know if we configure Ceph as a S3 cloud storage, can Netbackup perform deduplication? Will all dedup be just on client server using accelerator or we can have target dedup by netbackup as well? Or netbackup will send all backup data it receives to Ceph without any dedup, leaving all data reduction to be handled by CEPH? Can CEPH as a cloud storage perform dedup on its own? With CEPH 4 , we will have erasure coding, so the total storage used will be less but in terms of dedup what advantages can I have by using ceph as cloud storage instead of a MSDP. If anyone is using Netbackup with Ceph, could you share your approach please.Solved1.8KViews0likes1CommentBackup Exec 16 Exchange GRT backup error with deduplication

Veritas support has been worse than useless. We have a CAS MBS enviroment, duplicate jobs are scheduled to run every week from MBS to Deduplication storage on CAS but will get stuck in the active queued state for hours without any data transfer. No failure and no events in logs. Many weeks ago there was an Alert about Robotic Libraries but it has been cleared and not appeared since. Vertias support had me run an inventory on Dedupe storage, recreate storage, update all servers to 20.5, and generate several different logs. All to no avail. Any ideas are welcome.590Views0likes0CommentsWhat you can store and transmit with deduplication seems to very sensitive to deduplication rates.
The charts in the PDF are theortetical it would be interesting to see if others are getting results like these? From what I can see the ability to deupe data can have a significant impact on storage and transmission.1.3KViews0likes3CommentsWindows agent migration to new server
I'm running BE 20 for Windows and backing up my iscsi data volumes to a Dell OST deduplication device. I'm getting ready to migrate several Windows 2008 R2 servers running the BE agent to new Windows 2016 servers. Each migrated agent will keep it's host name and IP, and I want to make sure the new backups continue to be deduplicated against the previous backups. Do I need to do anything special to prep for that? I've found docs about migrating the BE server, but not the remote agents. Here's my plan: Shut down the old server, bring up the new server; rename with old server name and rejoin domain From BE server, establish trust relationship with new server and install agent Install OST dedup plugin on agent Is there anything else I need to do to deduplication recognize the previous backups? Thanks.Solved1.1KViews0likes2Comments
