Getting ready to invest in a new Library.. We cant decide between a Quantum i500 and a Spectra Logic T950. We will probably go LTO3. We are pretty much NAS only and I don't think we can pump enough data from our NetApp's to an LTO4. Any one have any thoughts here?

Hello, I have some questions about a future implementation. We currently back up about 4 tb's a day from a netapp r150 and r200 using NDMP (4 scsi connections per netapp). We also back up about 175 win/unix/linux clients over our network. Our current configuration is fairly stable and I am...

Anyone out there doing NDMP cloning? I recently was allowed to buy a large quantity of tapes.. I was thinking of cloning my NDMP backups.. along with normal client based backups and trying to do a consolidated full. I have never done this before.. was wondering if anyone had any success with...

Thanks 605 - This makes more sense now.. from a logical standpoint i guess i really dont need any index on tape anyhow since my browse and retention policy are both 10 years. One more question... From a best practices standpoint, what is the preferred time to do keep your browse policy.. I...

I thought that it would hold the index data for 10 years.. but the volume that it writes it to is set to expire in 30 days. I thought since the backup has a 10 year retention, then the index would too. mminfo -a -r 'volume(7), location(10), pool(7), %used,space,volretent' |grep -i ndmpfull...

Our retention policy has been 1 month for as long as I have been doing backups. We recently were told to do a once a month full and keep it for 10 years. I am not sure if I set this up correctly and am looking for some advice. before I start.. We are networker 7.2.1 on Solaris 8. 90% of...

I would just try mounting some tapes in your NDMP drives.. I would think if you can get your NAS to do this you should be able to perform a backup. 605 - So what you are saying.. is that if I can do an NDMP backup to a drive that is scsi attached to my Legato server? Does this work in the...

I am also seeing this message as well: 04/11/06 13:05:19 nsrd: Jukebox 'p7000' failed: write eof: I/O error I see this somewhat frequently, but again, my backups show as completing successfully.

The jokebox robot is controlled by the Legato server. There are 13 drives in the library, the first 5 are scsi attached to the legato server.. the next 8 are (scsi)attached to two seperate netapp heads. Could this be a timeout thing?? SOmewhere in the library settings in Legato?? Thanks for...

I have been seeing a few errors in my daemon.log. None of the backups have been failing, but the keyword "fail" sets off some alerts. The errors are: 04/04/06 09:00:07 nsrd: SYSTEM error: Interrupted system call 04/04/06 09:00:07 nsrd: Jukebox 'p7000' failed: Interrupted system call 04/04/06...

This might be a dumb question, but do you have software compression turned on for that specific client? When I had it turned on it caused lots of issues. btw - I am doing mostly nfs based backups and I probably average about 500 to 600g per 200g lto2 tape. This is mostly oracle data files.

I had been using ndmp to back up our filers for the past 2 years before switching to BakBone.. I would back up our nightly.0 backup. I used the following options: nsrndmp_save -T dump HIST=y UPDATE=y DIRECT=y EXTRACT_ACL=y The only problem we have had is that you cannot restore a snapshot...

I just recently moved my 6.1 server. I downed all the services first, then tarred up the /nsr directory to an NFS mount. The new server took on the same nodename and IP of the old server, so I untarred the /nsr dir, then installed the scsi drivers on the new server. I needed to reinstall my...
