[ADSM-L] Isilon backup
2012-02-09 12:49:40
This may be a bit off topic but consider this a thread bump....
We have about 25TB worth of unstructured data spread across seven windows
servers using DFS. We are using TSM with a monthly image backup as well as
daily journal based backups to collect the data but I'm concerned about restore
times.
I have convinced managment that we need a filer but they do not want to
purchase a file JUST to for file server backup/recovery. They now want to
depoly test and dev VM's on the solution and possibly use the platform for
virtual desktops (VDI) and maybe even a workstation backup solution.
I spoke with Gartner and without hesitation the recommended the ISILON over all
other solutions. For those of you that already have ISILON do you feel it was
the right choice?
We are an EMC storage shop so ISILON would be easy to sell but I feel better
about purchasing a proven solutions (NETAPP) rather than something that EMC may
chew up and significantly change.
My primary concern is still with the backup of the data contained on the device
along with virus protection and access control. Please provide your feedback.
