All,
I have a question
I would like to pose because I respect the vast amount of
knowledge
associated with
this forum. We are creating a new backup environment due to some
changes
and needs.
Currently we will
be backing up about 40 terabytes of data with a foreseen growth of 30-35% of
data annually.
Data being backed
up includes, Windows File systems, Unix File systems, Exchange, Oracle and
SQL.
Having a
Production site and a DR site using present day Best practices and current
available hardware
what strategy
would you use to set this up? This is even considering purchasing a new
library and using LTO4 drives.
The backup system
will have a dedicated connection. We currently have 8 HP prolient servers
as our media servers
which may
stay.
We have some
thoughts as to how and what we will do including using vtl's and replication
for the catalog
but since
this forum has so many experienced people I want to get some other
professional opinions.
If you could set
up (from scratch) a Production backup site and DR site based on those data
numbers which hardware and strategy
would you use
considering future growth?
thanks
-Jackson
