I run a Storage Node on a Sun X4500 with Solaris 10 x86, but with

one issue. If the advanced file type device is not in use, recovers
from it work well. Unfortunately, I am not able to recover data
while a scheduled backup is in progress and writing to it. I have a
case open with EMC now about this. EMC says they put out a fix for
that problem with NetWorker 7.4.1, but I suspect that when they put
that fix out it was for Windows, not Solaris. In response to my
case, they did some testing, but their testing was with the device
sitting on a Windows and they were unable to replicate the problem.
Yesterday, I asked EMC to test it in a configuration that's closer
to what I am using, which they agreed to do right away, but I
haven't heard back yet since yesterday on this case.
Stan,
Have you heard anything yet from EMC on this case? We are
considering an identical configuration, and are very interested in
the outcome. I did a search on Powerlink and only found 1 unrelated
hit for X4500.
Nope, not a word since. I assume EMC is still running tests.
