I was able to resolve the slowness of mailbox backups by upgrading to BackupExec 11d as Steve mentioned. It uses the Granular Recover Technology. This allowed me to only have to backup the information store. Then from the restore I can drill down to individual mailboxes and pull out items...

Does anyone use any software application to do snapshots or hot backups of Hyperion. Currently we have a time window where we require that all users be out of Hyperion and set a task for ntbackup to back up Hyperion to disk and then use Netbackup to backup the backup from disk to tape. I know...

After setting up File Archiving using KVS Enterprise Vault, the backups on the file server started failing when it tried to backup the share were the files that had been archived had been. In event viewer there is the error "Delayed Write Failed". Also the Server locks up and needs to be...

What determines whether an environment would work best using BackupExec or Netbackup for backups. Is there a certain number of Servers, amount of data or anything else that determines this. I am currently using Netbackup 6.0 in a Wintel environment, backing up around 5 TB with my weekly full...

cfearn, I dont know if this will help but have you tried adding info for each of those Servers into the host file. I had an issue once where my master server wouldnt communicate with a client. I added the name and ip address of the client into the host file of the master server and vice versa...

I would agree with your statement about not installing NOM on your Master Server unless you are sure you have a good catalog backup to recover from in case of database problems. "Veritas Netbackup 6.0 Release Notes - Additional Operational Notes" dated September 2005 shows Solaris 10 as being...

I have seen issues where once the NAS or SAN space is full, the oldest images still didnt get deleted causing new jobs to fail. As mentioned earlier, once an image has been copied to tape you can use bpexpdate to make the copy on disk the secondary and the copy on tape the primary. Below is...

NOM is supported for Solaris. Page 20 of the Operations Manager Getting Started Guide starts the planning and installation of NOM for Solaris. Were there any issues when you installed and setup the pre-req's for NOM, VxPBX and VxSSAT from the Veritas ICS CD?

I upgraded from 5.1 MP3 to 6.0. The nbpushdata -add worked great at allowing me to populate my other media servers at different times. Which allowed me to not have to upgrade all my media servers immediately when I upgraded my Master Server. The problem that I ran into was when installing...

Netbackup 6 is out. I have installed it and plan on configuring the sharepoint backups soon. What version of Netbackup are you using now? Version 5.0 and 5.1 uses the SQL agent to backup sharepoint. I am overlooking the documentation for 6.0 now to configure it for sharepoint backups since...

Upgraded from NBU 5.1 MP3 to 6.0. My Servers that are in an active\active cluster backups failed with "license use exceeded" error. We had a similar problem when we upgraded from 4.5 to 5.1. The fix for this was 5.1 MP2. The Server's virtual node is being seen as another machine. This isn't...

Not sure how many have upgraded to Netbackup 6 for Windows yet. Invitiations can be requested from Veritas. Got my copy in the mail today. I noticed that there is a Sharepoint agent instead of using the SQL agent for NBU 6. If anyone has upgraded to this yet, can individual documents be...

Netbackup 6.0 has a built-in management pack called NOM insteading of using a MOM management pack like BackupExec.

We were finally able to get the Oracle agent to work successfully to do a backup and a restore. I would use the System account within oracle to backup and restore the database or have your DBA to create an account within Oracle that has rights to do this. This will require the following...
