Re: [Veritas-bu] Red Hat Snapshot Client Configuration

Hi,

It has more than one variable (OS-bit, array brand/model, provider version, filesystem type etc.) need to be put together in order to have a supported combo.

First, download the snapshot client comp. list here : http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH126901

Go to operating system section and check to see if your environment is able meet the requirements.

That guide also shows the supported items including VxVM/VxFS.

Bahadir.

Hi All,

I have a Red Hat 4.4 Client with millions of small files , so the regular STANDERD unix backup of a particular share is not completing. I thought we could to snapshot client backups. However I'm bit confused if I need a SAN based HARDWARE snapshot provider or would I need something like Veritas Voloume Manger to take the snapshot. In case of windows VSS can take the snapshots however I'm not sure if this version of Red Hat comes with any snapshot provider.

If anyone has successfully configured Red Hat Snapshot Client backups please let me know.

Regards
Anurag
