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
