I have a NBU 6.0 (MP4) environment (running under Windows
2003 Server).
The environment consists of 2 x LTO3 drives in a FSC TX48
library. One drive is attached to a Filer, the other is attached to the NBU
Master.
I can back up the Filer volumes okay (although I’m not
getting fantastic throughput – around 30Mb/sec maximum). What I am having
a problem with is testing restores. A restore to an alternative volume failed.
I did manage to get a restore to the original location to work, but when I
checked the LUNs, the files hadn’t been restored. Does anyone have any
ideas that might help me?
Also which device should I use in my NBU device
configuration setup? This is the output from the filer.
