[Veritas-bu] Anyone using media sharing in 6.5?
2008-08-06 11:54:28
I'm finding that I'm vaulting quite a few partially used tapes, because
each tape can only be written by the server that owns it, and I have 7
media servers. The new media sharing option in 6.5 looks like it would
help to optimize the tape usage, but I'm wondering if anyone has tried
this out yet? I checked the knowledge base and there are several bugs
related to media sharing that are fixed in 6.5.2 (which I am using).
Just a bit nervous to enable this in production. I'm also wondering
where a shared tape is mounted for a restore...is it based on the server
that the image was written on, since there would be no overall tape
"owner"? We use alternate restore server options quite frequently, so I
don't want to break that.
Any comments on media sharing would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bryan
