Hi, I want to set up a new backup environment with 1 Master/Media server, 2 tape drives to backup 1 MS exchange server, 1 filer and 4-5 standard client servers. The data to be backed up is very less. Can somebody please suggest what kind of license should i procure. Should it be Enterprise license or Standard. If i go with enterprise licensing will i have to get separate licence for backing up MS exchange server and filer( NDMP). Also what features are included by default in enterprise licence. Can someone please share your thoughts on what license should i go with. Regards, Hari.Solved842Views5likes4CommentsNetbackup Solaris Media Server to 5230 Appliance Migration

Good afternoon, I would need to confirm if I can perform the following migration, and hardware catalog, with the following characteristics: Current platform: Sparc V440, Solaris 9, NBU 5.1 (master / media) STK L180 robotic library with IBM LTO2 FC drives New Platform: T4-2 Sparc, Solaris 10, NBU 7.x (master / media), I will be 7.5 SL3000 robotic library with IBM drives LTO5 / LTO4 FC LTO4 drives would use to restore old LTO2 tapes. The LTO5 for new backups. Finally, compatibility of agents and clients NBU between these versions My first concern is about the viability of the migration of the catalog and activation of licenses. Another important point is the migration and redesign of existing backup policies, any recommendation? The second on the operation of LTO4 drives for LTO2 restores, which according to manual is viable, but would need to know if they have specific experience in this. thank you very much regardsSolved1.4KViews4likes8CommentsSymantec Netbackup 7 licensing
Hi All, I'd like to know if I'm getting this correctly. I'm planning to get Netbackup 7 Starter Edition according to b-symc_netbackup_7_core_DS_12995286-2.en-us.pdf (http://eval.symantec.com/mktginfo/enterprise/fact_sheets/b-symc_netbackup_7_core_DS_12995286-2.en-us.pdf) Table 2. the Edition comparison the Starter Edition can have 5 Server (supported clients) does this means i can have the following backup items: 1x ESXi 4 server (using vStorage API for inline deduplication - Change Block Tracking) 1x Solaris SPARC + Oracle DB 10gR2 1x Linux 1x Windows Server + Share Point 2007 (Granular restore) 1x Windows Server + Exchange Server 2007 (Granular restore) all of the above with bare metal restore capability. Since it is said that i could have: Server Clients, Tape Drive and Database Agents included ? yes I understand that Deduplication is not included here since it will need another license to spend. I'm getting confused here of which product that i should get :-| Would be good if anyone can clarify this please ?Solved1.2KViews4likes6CommentsVeritas InfoScale 7.0: Licensing Veritas InfoScale 7.0
You require a license to install and use Veritas InfoScale products. There are two ways you can register the Veritas InfoScale product license keys: Use key-based licensing When you purchase a Veritas InfoScale product, you receive a License Key certificate. The certificate specifies the product keys and the number of product licenses purchased. Use keyless licensing The license is registered based on the product you install. Within 60 days of choosing this option, you must install a valid license key corresponding to the license level, or continue with keyless licensing by managing the systems with Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager. You can register the product license keys either manually or by using the installer. You can use the vxlicinstupgrade utility, if you want to: Upgrade to another Veritas InfoScale product Upgrade a temporary license to a permanent license Manage co-existence of multiple licenses For more information on licensing Veritas InfoScale products, see: About Veritas InfoScale product licensing Registering Veritas InfoScale using product license keys Registering Veritas InfoScale product using keyless licensing Updating your product licenses Using the vxlicinstupgrade utility Veritas InfoScale documentation can be found on the SORT website.1.6KViews3likes0CommentsPUT MORE IN THE GUI!!!!!
I get more frustrated everyday! When I call Symantec support and ask for a simple solution....I am always told to "run this cmd". Netbackup is suppossed to be the industry leader in backup software....so I am told. My company has spent over $500K on the netbackup software.....I can just imagine how much other compaines have spent. Here is 1 small example..... We are planning on moving our datacenter around and need to move alot of servers from this rack to that rack. Some of the servers include the netbackup servers(master & medias). Due to synthetic backups and MSDP(kudos for that)...all backups are done but the duplications to tape are still running. I have 10 duplications pending to run and they will not finish by the time we need to bring down the servers. WHY can I not just right click and hold or suspend these duplications? I am sure it would not take to much to program that into the the gui. NO I have to run some cmd that takes me 30 minutes to gather all of the information I need. Then another 30 minutes to write the cmd to release the duplications. I am sure I could come up with atleast 5 examples of where GUI improvements would make everyone's life's better. I understand that in 7.6 there are suppossed to be ALOT of improvements in SLP's and what can be done. I have been asking for these "improvements" for 3yrs now. Like I said...my company has spent ALOT of money to purchase....and for support for this product. You would think it would not take too much to program in these improvements. Maybe if more of us let Symantec know how we feel....they might do something!617Views3likes2Comments
