Hi all

Not really looking for any solution on this one, just to see if anyone
has experienced issues of LTO3 cartridges phsyically snapping in drives
when performing backups.

The tape drives are HP LTO3, fibre attached running firmware M66s, the
tape drives are installed into a STK SL8500 silo.

Thanks in advance

Jon

This Technote may be worth a read..... To get a better understanding :)
It refers to 5.1, but it gives you an idea on what is needed for
successful backups of Windows Machines.
 
NOTE: Ensure that your Windows boxes are using VSS to do the backups,
and not VSP! Check the settings using BPClient or from the GUI under
Master Server Properties / Client Attributes. Add a client in there and
check the TAB "Windows Open File Backup". Ensure VSP is not enabled and
Win2k3 or Win2k8 boxes are using VSS!

Ok, slight correction

 

2003 servers it gets  Shadow Copy Components:\

 

2008 servers it gets System_State:\

 

(but that could be dependent on vsp or vss - not sure)

But my policies say All-Local_Drives and it has gotten theses.

ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES doesn't grab the SYSTEM_STATE/SHADOW_COPY_COMPONENTS
for my Windows clients.  At least it never used to?  I had to explicitly
put those in my file list.  Most of my policies were created under 5.x,
now running 6.5.6.  Maybe something has been ":fixed".

The ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES directive keeps you from having to know all the

Our environment, HP-UX 11-31 currently running one master and media

a couple windows b/u's thrown in for good measure.  Let me start this
out by stating that I just know enough Windows to scrape by and get me
into trouble.  That said, I'm setting up a backup for a Windows box and
have been reading and trying to figure out exactly what the

Issue resolved.  Even with deleting all drives and robots on master
sever and media servers, then recreating them I still had the issues.
Symantec support had test connectivity and it all seemed to be fine.  He
then had me run tpautoconf -a on the failing media server and it started
working.  All my backups performed well last night. Now I need to figure
out how to get the same reports from bperror in 7.0 that I was getting
in 6.x

bperror -U -backstat -hoursago 24 -by_statcode this use to give me a
list of servers that get backup broken down by result code.  Now all it
gives me is the master server.  If I use -hoursago 72 I get a report for
the backups performed pre 7.0 upgrade.

Same problem with this command bperror -U -backstat -hoursago 24

The only time I've seen "invalid magic number" messages is when two
mismatched components were trying to communicate.  Once was some upgrade
where I'd upgraded, say, ("say" == "I don't remember") the client but
not an agent.  

That's pretty vague, but if you're still fighting it, it might be worth
scripting a comparison of the size (or, better, the sum) of each
NetBackup binary between systems that works and the one that doesn't.
Uninstall/reinstall might be faster.  

There's an FT mention, AVR, drives that appear configured ... I'd first
blow away the device configuration and rediscover.  And whatever FT
configuration there is--I've only done FT once and don't remember it
fondly.

There is no OST functionality with NetApp.  NetApp wants you to buy more
storage, and snap everything, to their storage.  There is no need for
backup to them.

As for Falconstor, I've yet to see any customer with it.  And I see a
lot of customers a week across many states.  

The customers that have Datadomain, love it.  Almost as fanatical as
NetApp users.  DataDomain's new DD Bost software is intriguing, but why?
were they suffering against other players, that they had to offload
processing?  

Quantum has one of the best implementations of OST, with their direct to
tape feature.  But I'm not sure if their restore issues have been solved
yet?

Exagrid as well has some positive remarks.  

I'm pretty sure, that you'll pay more by a lot for DataDomain, but will
it be worth it?

Our production Oracle jobs are set to use two 700GB dssu shares in a
Storage Unit. We have our Full schedule set to bypass this and go
straight to tape due to the job being larger than Disk Staging can
handle for Oracle. Is there a fear of shoe shinning here since our
recent migration to LTO4? DSSU sits on some 700GB SATAs in a netapp and
I want to make sure this is acceptable, or find a better way to handle
this.

Have you thought about using dedupe to reduce the size of the backup to
disk?   We do that here with Data Domain then vault that off to tape.

We're still on 5.1mp6 at the time. Dedupe on the Netapp is happening I
believe. Not much we can do on that front right now.

Hello all,
I've been trying to get vStorage API backups going with Netbackup 7 in
my test environment now,  and am running into what I presume are
"standard" issues for people who've done this with VCB in the past.
Pretty sure I'm getting through those OK.

Getting beyond myself now, as this is a test environment  which has Lab
Manager, I'm running into VMs I can't backup. This is presumably because
they've been deployed via Lab Manager, which doesn't support the VMWare
snapshot method required to get the vStorage backups working.  The VMs
deployed straight from vCenter are no problem (basically the ones I can
right-click in vSphere client and create manual snapshots for ;).

Does this make sense?  Anyone have any experience with Lab Manager
deployed VM guests and VCB/vStorage backups?  Is there another method I
can try?

Thanks,
Jon

Shoe shining is less of a problem with modern tape drives, as they have
this "speed matching" which will slow the tape drive's throughput down
to match, as closely as possibe, the speed that data is coming in from
the host...

"The IBM LTO-4 drive has the new technology that matches dynamic speed
at any of the 6 speeds of 30MB/sec, 48MB/sec, 66MB/sec, 84MB/sec,
103MB/sec, or 120MB/sec. This speed matching is done for the adjustment
of native data speed of the tape drive as close as possible with the net
data rate of the host. The host's net data speed is that which is
achieved after the factoring out of data compressibility."

The details vary by drive vendor.

In other words, you should be seeing about 60MB/sec from NetBackup
(assuming
2:1 compression) to meet the minimum LTO-4 drive speed of 30MB/sec.

Just a note on this point.  Don't know about other systems, but Netapp
says that CIFS backups do properly save UNIX security info.  It's saved
in a SMB structure.

NFS cannot carry the NTFS ACLS though.  So conceivably you can do all
CIFS backups and get all security structures.  (I do NDMP and have
mainly UNIX servers, so it's not something I've tried to test).

Well, NFSv4 does NTFS-style ACLs. See Section 5.11 of the NFSv4 spec
(RFC 3530). There's also a draft on mapping NFSv4 and draft-POSIX ACLs
("draft-ietf-nfsv4-acl-mapping-05").

Don't know of many systems that can show both though. I believe
OpenSolaris can do UID-SID mapping and such with ACLs if you're
exporting a ZFS file system to both NFS and CIFS/SMB.

NetApp should be able to handle it if you use "mixed" QTrees:
