    Best way to copy many small files (millions)?

    I'm looking for suggestions/tools to copy 20M ~60KB files from one system to another. In particular if you have any real world experience doing something similar i'd love to hear about it. Ideally solution would be: 1. restartable in case of failure 2. fast.. 1Gbps speed if I/O subsystem can...

    Reading a tape

    Is it possible to take a tape someone else has produced from their commvault server and "import" it into your server? Appreciate any docs/direction on where I could find info on how to do this if it's possible.

    ANR2576W Warning "Multiple Schedulers"

    Odd that the node name is NODENAME. Sure you don't have another machine configured with the same nodename?

    Stuck in grub after kickstart?

    Using CentOS44.. I have a server (lets call it SERVER1) that after a successful kicking of it, it reboots and gets stuck in grub. The odd thing is the same process and kickstart file works fine on another server i have (lets call it SERVER2) in that after the reboot it boots up fine. There are...

    Tape Drive Problem

    What do you do when these types of errors indicate something more vague like "tape device error"?

    Retention time for tapes

    Good point Matthew that there is that as well as other ways to force a backup of all the files (archives, selectives, etc). I'm not going to dispute that but this is less about that and more about retention and a capacity problem in his library. Given his level of knowledge it didn't make a...

    Retention time for tapes

    Let me try it another way.. with a little education on how TSM is different.. TSM does not have a concept of a "full backup" when you're doing file system backups. This is one of the fundamental key differences that seperates TSM from other products. Therefore in a way, you're trying to fit a...

    U.S. DOD 5220.22 wipe utility

    Anyone know if CentOS43/RHE include a U.S. DOD 5220.22 complient wipe utility? If not, has anyone found one they're happy with? Thanks!

    Retention time for tapes

    I feel like responding with "why?" TSM works quite differently from other backup products and while I suppose you could, I feel as though it'd be a disservice to come up with a way in which you could. The fact that you're asking implies you don't really understand how TSM works.

    Quieting down /var/log/messages

    Due to the fact that our network group kills idle connections after 10 minutes, I get a lot of this in /var/log/messages when I stay logged in.. Anyone know how to prevent this level of logging?

    Adding Clients to be backed up..

    I've noticed when I install iFileData agents on a new client and then go look on the CommServer Console, there is logging activity indicating the client contacted the server as expected. I then look under licensing and I can see the iFileData agent license has been consumed. BUT, I don't see the...

    Growing a file system..

    I have a 10GB ext3 file system on a logical volume. I want to grow it to 20GB so I did an lvextend and grew the LV to 20GB. The file system itself is still only 10GB as shown via a "df". resize2fs requires the file system to be unmounted. Is there a way to grow an ext3 file system while it's...

    Only 1 drive used during backups

    Thanks! Mine was set to 1. I take it there isn't a way to set it to # of drives (i.e. automatically). I have to simply set it to however many drives i have manually? I tend to avoid multiplexing with backup products since it can slow recovery time. It's a nice tuning feature but in my...
