NetApp NFS and CIFS backup

0

I need a solution

Hi

A quick overview on how we take NetApp backups, and why we ended up doing this way.

Initially our plan was to take backup of NetApp directly to Tape by utilizing the NetApp plugin and Replication Director. Backup was very slow so we ended up with a staging disk to speed up backups. The negative side of this is that Replication Director utilize SLP to operate, and SLP does not support a staging disk so we ended up excluding the Replication Director.

Later on we moved the backups to a MSDP pool. and the way we take backup of CIFS share today is by mounting the CIFS share to a Windows client, and setting up Windows\File policies on Master Server using the UNC path as selection to take backup of theese CIFS share.

Our Linux team has raised a concern that this method would require alot of time and manual steps in order to achieve similar for NFS shares mounted on a Linux server.

My question is as simple as follows:

Is there a way to take backup of NetApp volumes, without involving a client which have CIFS or NFS shares mounted? Would i be able to achieve this by implementing the Replication Director? My understanding is that NMDP is a way around that, but the problem is that it is very slow, and accelerator is only available on 7.7 version of Netbackup. Is there any other way?

How to allow a policy to run more than 24 hours yet also have a specific start time - want to avoid status 196

I need a solution

I have some VMware intelligent backup policies that run every other day (some odd days, some even days).  The policies have a start time of 18:00 and they close 23 hours late. 

Depending on the mix of jobs sometimes all the jobs in the policy do not complete and the remaining ones cancel with status 196.  But I dont ever want a submitted job to not run - its OK if they run beyond 23 hours.

I tried changing the window for the policy to include all 24 hours but then the policy kicks in at 00:00 - which I dont want. I want to keep my specified start time.

How can I have a specific start time and yet also avoid 196's?

Slow Duplication and Replication Issue

0
0
I do not need a solution (just sharing information)

Hi All, 

This is to share with you the Long pending issue which we faced in our environment for 6 months . Our Duplication Jobs started running slow and we started seeing backlog of Duplication jobs building up on daily basis which went up to 500 TB.

Earlier Setup :-

Duplication Jobs Window - 24x7 

Replication Jobs Window - 24x7 

Storage Unit groups Used for Disk Pool Storage units and Tape Storage units.

Netbackup Appliance 5230 ( 2.6.0.2 )- 1 Master Appliance , 1 Media Appliance  in Primary Site , 1 in Remote site for DR.

Netbackup Version - 7.6.0.2.

We started seeing Backlog increase slowly which began to increase to huge size over the period of few months. Backups also were running slow and Replication also went slow. Overall Appliances Performance became very slow.

Case raised with Symantec and worked with Backline To resolve this Performance issue.

Did Data Collects , Logs collected and Sent to Symantec multiple Times.

Actions Taken:

1. Replaced predictive disk failures for 2 disks in Master appliance on two occasions.

2. Upgraded Netbackup patch to 7.6.0.4

3. Changed the NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS and NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS_DISK to 32 to avoid long delays.

4. Broke the Stu Group and Started using Netbackup Disk Storage Unit and Tape Storage Unit for Backup and Duplication respectively.

5. Added Alternate read server in SLP as same as the one used for backup to overcome Data travelling from appliance to other for duplication to tape.

6. /usr/openv/lib/ost-plugins/pd.conf  changed from PREFETCH_SIZE = 33554432  to PREFETCH_SIZE = 67108864

7. /disk/etc/puredisk/contentrouter.cfg  changed from PrefetchThreadNum=8   to PrefetchThreadNum=16

8. Changed the Max duplication to 5 TB and Min to 500 GB

9. Changed the Replication window and Duplication window such that they dont Overlap. 

10. Upgraded the Appliances BIOS and RAID Software

11. Upgraded the Netbackup software to 7.6.1.2 Version

Now After the Upgrade to 7.6.1.2 Version , The performance has improved Drastically and we are seeing Backlog decreasing rapidly with 50TB per day using 10 Tape drives.

Replication performance has also increased and Backups are completing well within time.

Cheers and thanks to Symantec Support and all others who helped us in this issue.

What is going to happen to this forum after October 3?

SLP: suspending and restarting cancelled jobs

0
0
I need a solution

Hi,

We are in the process of moving our policies to a new disk based storage unit and all of policies will use SLPs. The backup to disk and tape run as per policy schedule and the offsite copy part of the SLP is restricted to certain hours during the day.

Earlier in the week I had to restart NetBackup on one of the media servers. I did the normal process that we had in place and also suspended the SLPs. However, the SLP operations which were already ongoing, did not cancel when I shut down NetBackup. I got a whole list of SLP operations in progress. The tasks which didn't stop on NetBackup shutdown were 1 bpcd, 1 bpduplicate and bpdm (several processes).

Here is what I thought to get NetBackup to really shutdown (script with following workflow).

  1. Suspend SLPs
  2. List incomplete images for SLPs
  3. Get backup IDs from above step and then cancel them
  4. Shutdown NetBackup
  5. ..... do schedule maintenance....
  6. Startup NetBackup
  7. Use backup IDs from step 2, and restart/reissue those operations only

Does this sound like a viable workaround? Is there a better way out? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I am using Backup Exec 15 on a Windows 2012 R2.  We use Dell PowerVault TL 2000 robotic library for tape backup.  I would like to create multiple backups with the same job selections as I used to do in Backup Exec 2010.  That was a great functionality that is being eliminated in the new version.  Now I have to start from scratch to create eight jobs with the same servers and selections to point the backup to eight different tapes.  This is a tedious task and real inconvenience with BE 15.

System Logon Account Password

I need a solution

I am running Backup Exec 2014 with all of the patches.

My "System Logon Account" is DOMAIN\sbe.  What is the proper way to change the password for this account?  

In AD first and then in Backup Exec via the Logon Account Managment tool?  Or do I just do it in the Logon Account Managment Tool and that passed it to AD in the background?

Thanks for any help with this process!

Backup New Added Files From Folder to Tape

I need a solution

Hi all,

I am new to BackupExec 2010 R3!

We have a folder on our server that SQL Server backups there. I need to introduce this folder to BackupExec so it picks up files from that folder to write them on the Tape. But I want each time the agent of Backupexec runs, only write new files found in the folder. Is that possible? or BackupExec will write whole contents of folder to tape each time?

I would be grateful if someone could give a solution.

Many thanks in advance,

Amin

Back UP To San Storage

I need a solution

Hi, I have installed Backup Exec 2015 on a VM with Windows Server 2012 R2 to back up physical and virtual machines in my environment. All Backups stored in FC LUNs directly presented to Backup Exec Server and duplicated to Tape Library. There are some physical windows servers with their own LUNs presented to them and I wonder is it possible to send their backup files direcly to presented LUNs without sending data across netwrok to Backup Exec server. Is it possible to this without installing Backup Exec locally on those servers? In that case what licenses are needed?
