Hi!
When running VCB backup (mode 3) and the mount-point is on a GPT-disk
(see http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/storage/GPT_FAQ.mspx
for explication)
Backup fails with error 36.
Anyone seen this? When using mount-point on other (MBR)-disks it
works fine…
Any advice ?
Regards
Anders

Folks,
We recently attempted to move from
VCB backups to "Netbackup VCB Integrated" for our ESX environment. We
ran into a lot of contention issues, specifically with snapshots errors. Do VCB
and "Netbackup VCB Integrated" use the same snapshot mechanism, I was
under the impression that Netbackup VCB Integrated simply piggy backs off of
what VCB uses? Many of these snapshot errors are in fact contention on the
luns. We are just trying to determine why, if we use VCB, we don't have
snapshot issues. We aren't running fewer backups in parallel in when using VCB
vs Netbackup VCB Integrated, so we can rule that out. If VCB uses a different
snapshot mechanism\technology than "Netbackup VCBi"…..then maybe that
is a good starting point for trouble-shooting.
