Hi Gerard,

hello,
last years ago, i bought solstice backup 5.1 at edu/research prices. Since 4 months, a mine colleague tried to replace networker with other software (bacula), due to problems with networker.
I'm trying to solve problems, and lobby to buy new release of this soft.
Can people give me some advices?

you come late you should have upgraded to NetWorker 6 with no extra fee for disk backup (but Networker 7!). Therefore we do not upgrade to NetWorker 7 and are waiting till Bacula is suitable to our needs, especially pool facility. NetWorker 7 would have become very expensive for us, about 18k EUR, not counted disk backup, because we have a gratis grandfather license.


i want legato run on solaris machine (actually ultra 10, solaris 9 or 10, in the future sun v120).

Ultra 10 / Solaris 9 / Networker 6.1.4 / Exabyte 215 library / about 8TB incremental save on 6 RAID partitions - is ours


We have LTO2 and hp dds3 jukebox. Actually 3 days are needed to do a full backup, but it's okay because we have sata disks to do fast backup (but without incrementation) Is legato abilty now to do backup on disks, or is it always limited on tapes?

disk backup is fine, but you should be able to write some scripts, i.e.

bash-2.03# cat delete_old.sh (delete everything on disk older than 6 months)
#!/usr/bin/bash
DELLOG=/nsr/dellog
DELLOGDATE=$DELLOG/`date +%y-%m-%d`
mminfo -avV -omt -r'ssid, volume, client, name, level, savetime, sumsize' -q'family=disk, savetime < 6 months ago' >> $DELLOGDATE.log mminfo -avV -omt -r'ssid' -q'family=disk, savetime < 6 months ago' >> $DELLOGDATE.ssid
for i in `cat $DELLOGDATE.ssid`; do nsrmm -y -d -S $i; done
rm $DELLOGDATE.ssid
for V in I-000 I-006 I-106 I-206 I-306 I-2000 ; do nsrstage -C -V $V; done
exit 0

OR

bash-2.03# cat stage.sh (stage out to tape everything on disk older than 5 months)
#!/usr/bin/bash
mminfo -avV -omt -r'ssid' -q'family=disk, savetime < 5 months ago' | nsrstage -b"Incremental Stage" -m -S -f -
exit 0



thanks in advance,

gerard
