Re: [Veritas-bu] SLP with Synthetic backups - What are people doing for workarounds?
2012-02-21 10:41:39
I'm not trying to hijack the thread. If
I should start my own, I will.
We are a recent customer of Symantec
and use both netbackup and their 5020 appliances. We
have implmented 2 domains and are attempting
to use an SLP and AIR to replicate images from one
Netbackup domain to the other.
We see the backups run and following
that, the duplication run and complete as well.
Our question is, should we see another
job on the remote storage system perform the import. If
we shouldn't see it in the activity
monitor, is there a way (via the command line) that we can tell if the
entire process is finished?
Thanks, Kevin
