FYI/Reminder,
If you plan on making this a new master with a different name, restoring
from old data may require some extra work. This is because I'm almost
positive that a client can have only one master, and to change the master
requires a reinstall of the NB client app for each client. So you will
initially have to reinstall the client on all your machines. Additionally,
you will have to do this again to the specific client you wish to restore
from a old backup on the old master server. If I am wrong I'm sure someone
will correct me.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] New SUN Server build
Folks,
We are preparing to build a new Master/media server. It will be a SUN
V440 w/ 4-1.06 GHz, 8 GB RAM, 4-36 GB Ultra320 SCSI (internally mirrored for
2), 2 GigE MMF fiber cards, 2- Dual FC interface and 1 PCI dual channel
Ultra 3 diff SCSI host adapter. Attached externally will be a SUN StorEdge
D2 Ultra160 SCSI 4-36 GB drives to start (mirrored). Our intent is to have
the internal drives only for OS and swap and to use the D2 for the netbackup
and DB. The silo (either an ADIC Scalar 2000 or a Quantum PX720), will be
connected via a set of the FCs. The OS will be Sol 9.0 (secured) and
initially the VERITAS app will be 4.5 FP5/6 with a planned upgrade to 5.1
when available if proven reliable.
We are looking for any suggestions, recommendations, warnings, etc that
may be available based upon your experiences. Including, any 'tweaks' to
the OS as we have done on our current solution (an E3000 / STK 9710) and
have shared in previous mailings.
Our current thoughts are to build the system - test - debug - test -
approve and then to begin redirection of clients on a scheduled basis from
the old to the new. We do not intend to migrate the catalogue over.
Instead we will retain both units active until the bulk of the media is
expired and then 'import' any minimal tapes that remain.
Again - your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
