Re: [Veritas-bu] Flash Backup

Guys,

Would this be a good option for backing up a Symantec E-vault environment ?

We’ve tried backing up E-vault through a regular backup and it just shuts down the NBU services as it tries to manage the millions of files in the vault.

Thanks in advance,

Mark Glazerman

Does anyone know where I can download Flash Backup for Netbackup? We have a directory with over 12 million small files in it and support recommended this product…

You need to purchase the advanced client (aka the snapshot client). It's not an expensive client but it's tiered based on the size of the client server.

The client is installed by default in Windows but the Advanced Client needs to be installed separately for Unix.

Make sure you read and follow the installation instructions. There are bunch of caveats but once installed correctly, it works very well.
