Hi All,

 

The problem is that we have a server with millions of little files, about 6TB worth.

 

I wanted to use flash backup and it works fine on raw devices but we have SVM on top which appears to be unsupported.

I didn’t think there would be much of a difference but it looks like there is.

 

Anyway, does anyone have a way to trick the agent to think it’s looking at a raw device or something similar. Maybe there’s a better way to do it ?

Maybe there is a totally different solution to this ????

 

Unfortunately VxFS is not an option right now, I have heard that it is compatible and you can also do BLIBs etc

 

Hope someone can help,

 

Regards,

 

Dominik
