Hi everyone
Now looking at DSU considerations for my setup:
 
1 x NBU 5.1 MP2 Win2k3 Server
2 x SAN Media NBU 5.1 MP2 Servers
3 x Shared Storage for TB of Data
 
I have configured a Disk Storage Unit on my Master Server, and as a test,
this volume is 100GB in size.
 
I have done a TEST BACKUP of the Master Server, using this new Storage Unit.
This has completed successfully.
 
A couple of questions:
 
1) On the new volume are image files of the server that was backed up. If I
wanted to expire the disk based backup, how is this done?
2) I do not see an option to do STAGE2 of Disk Storage (which I guess you
can put to tape). I think its because I created a bog-standard DSU. Is there
an option to do this, or should I just delete and start again?
3) If I have to delete, what about the data that was backed up?
4) Who else does DSU and any advice on how long data is kept, or whether you
use Stage 2 methods and write to tape?
 
Thanks all
 

Regards

Simon
