We would use the Puredisk product similar to how we would use a DD device, it would backend the Master/media servers as a backup location.  We need the environment to be able to cut some tape from the backups that were written to the disk backup location.  We will also need the disk backup location to be able to replicate to another similar device at another location; the important part of that replication is that the NetBackup master needs to know about both of the copies.

 

At this point we won’t be using the NetBackup 7 dedup as it is limited, it only does 37TB I believe??  Whereas the Puredisk or DD devices can manage much more than that.  Down the road, I’m thinking that I can use the NetBackup 7 media server dedup to write dedup backups at our two small sites and replicated to the puredisk cluster in our HO.  I know I won’t be able to do this with the DD device without buying two more small ones…so this is why I’m wondering out Puredisk….

 

Thanks!

Clarify how you will use puredisk and if you will use the standalone puredisk product or netbackup 7 deduplication option.

 Then we can talk….

I’m wondering if anyone out there is writing backups though NetBackup 6.5.x Media server to Puredisk?  If so, what is your feedback?  I’m wanting to compare puredisk to a data domain device.

 

Thanks!
