Verify Job randomly very slow BUE 2012

0
0
I need a solution

Hi, 

Backup Exec 2012 backup and verify to tape runs without any errors. 

Some weeks the stats are: 

Backup @ 840 MB/min

Verify @ 3348 MB/min

Other times, randomly, the stats are: 

Backup @ 871 MB/min

Verify @ 537 MB/min

Verify is not set up as separate job, but runs at the end of the backup within the same job. No errors, just incredibly slow. Same job, same data set. 


Setup alert for vmware client

I need a solution

Hi

I need to setup an alert so it emails me everytime a parituclar client is not backed up. Client is backed up through a VmWare Inteligent Policy. I do have the OpsCenter with analystic license, but still cant seem to find a way to setup an alert which will give me what i want.

I can easily setup an alert on policy level, but cant on client level. It simply does not list any clients at all, it lists the master server - Policy name and then media servers.

Buen día,

He instalado la consola de DLO 8.0, una ves configurado el perfil, asigando los clientes, storage y ubiación dedupe  al momento de instalar el agente y correrlo comiensa a realizar un respaldo local pero no en red. Al ver los Logs del agente se puede ver el mensaje "Dedupe engine Offline".

Al realizar un perfil y storage sin servidore dedupe este funciona correctamente. Estas pruebas ya las he realizado varas veces agregando ubicaciones y pools de deduplicación pero pasa el mismo problema.

De antemano agradesco el apoyo que se a brindado.

Backup Exec 15 V-Ray and GRT backup of Exchange 2010

0

I need a solution

I have some further questions regarding Backup Exec 15 V-Ray and additional licenses.

Let's say I have two ESXi 5.x or 6.x host in a VMware Cluster environment, which are both part of a VMware vCenter. Both ESXi hosts have 2 CPU sockets with 6 cores each CPU.

Each ESXi server hosts ...

1x W2K12R2 Domain-Controller, 2x W2K8R2 server with Exchange 2010, 2x W2K12R2 File Server

So in total, these are 10 virtual machines, 5 VM's on each ESXi host.

I would like to make a backup of each VM with Backup Exec 15 V-Ray including GRT for AD and Exchange 2010.

If I am not mistaken, I need the following ...

Backup Exec 15 V-Ray Tier B (per CPU, 8+ cores) with a Quantity of 4

Backup Exec 15 Agent for Applications and Databases with a Quantity of 6

Is that true? I need 6 Agents for Applications and Databases for the 2 Domain Controllers and 4 Exchange Servers to be able to do a GRT restore?

Thanks in advance,

DiWi

Backup Exec 15 unable to backup System State on Windows 2003

0

I need a solution

We recently switched from using Backup Exec 2012 to Backup Exec 15.  Backup Exec 15 runs a server that has Windows Server 2012 R2.  We have discovered that the system state backup of all our Windows 2003 servers are failing with the following error:

BackupV-79-57344-65233 - Snapshot Technology: Initialization failure on: "\\Server.CORP.COM\System?State". Snapshot technology used: Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS).

Snapshot technology error (0xE000FED1): A failure occurred querying the Writer status. See the job log for details about the error.

Check the Windows Event Viewer for details.

Writer Name: Event Logs, Writer ID: {EEE8C692-67ED-4250-8D86-390603070D00}, Last error: The VSS Writer failed. The operation cannot be retried (0x800423f4), State: Failed during prepare snapshot operation (8).

We did not have this problem with Backup Exec 2012.  Is there a known issue with Backup Exec 15 backing up the system state of 2003 servers?  Any suggestions of what I can try to fix this problem?  I found an article of system state backup problems with Backup Exec 2014 and the solution was to uncheck IPV6 on the server being backed up but in this case Windows Server 2003 does not have IPV6.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Just started getting some errors in VMWare backups after VMs were storage vmotioned to a newly provisioned LUN.

Thoughts?

Backup Archive Restore

I need a solution

Ok so for those of us that have taken the leap to 7.7.1 for all the new features one that stands out and is very frustrating -- doing a restore-- .

In the past Java versions you were able to manually put in a source and destination client now you have to select from a drop down box, for those environments that only have a couple systems that is great but for those who have hundreds of systems scrolling through all those servers the find the one you want to restore is very time consuming and frankly sucks.

Is there a way to turn this feature off? or is there some trick to search quicker.

Thanks in advanced for any and all responses.

need good recipe to migrate from near death netbackup 6.0mp7 master/media server to new hw

I need a solution

Folks,

I have netbackup 6.0mp7 running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 (Nahant Update 5) aka Linux SERVERNAME 2.6.9-55.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Apr 20 17:03:35 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux.

The hardware that this is running on is old and is failing.  I have a newer host setup with linux and it looks like this:

-Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)

-Linux SERVERNAME2 2.6.18-194.el5PAE #1 SMP Mon Mar 29 20:19:03 EDT 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

My "goal" is to setup the new server and replicate the current one to the new one and then replace the current one (changing hostname and IP of new one to the same as the current one).  

What is the best method to replicate from a netbackup master/media server perspective on the new hardware?

Yes I am aware (and unable to change) that my netbackup version is very old and unsupported.  That said, I need to get this working using 6.0mp7.  I do have the 6.0 installer and mp7 patches.

thanks,

cj

MS SQL backup

I need a solution

environment: Windows 2008 R2 with Netbackup 7.6.0.2

I am implementing MS SQL backups. At the moment I installed the agent on one of our test servers. Also there is a policy configured to backup the entire database. Together with our DBA I succeeded to make a backup.

So all goes well actually. However our DBA's need to get familiar with the tools and start to have confidence in Netbackup. 

In the past I worked with Oracle DBA's and they can do backups and restores with RMAN. That interacts with Netbackup. Is there something like that for MS SQL? Can the MS SQL DBA's use their tools to have interaction with Netbackup? Or can they just use the Netbackup tools?
