Networker + direct SAN backup
Hi all!
This is my first post to that group, so I would like to say hallo to everybody. The situation is like this: There a EMC, Server (with Networker 7.1) and a PowerVault 132T. They are connected to Fibre Switch. Is it possible to create client wchich would provide direct backup EMC - PV132? I mean: EMC - PV132 not EMC - Server - PV132. I hope it is clear. How can I create such client? -- Abadonna |

How can I create such client? not really up on EMC at all but it sounds more like an architectural issue you're dealing with. What I think you're asking for is serverless backup. Not something easy to come by; true serverless backup. Correct me if I'm wrong but you want blocks of data to go from disk directly to tape with no host in the middle? Nothing that I know of does that yet with any reliability. I spoke with a tape vendor a few years ago and they could get the data on tape no problem, getting it back was a real challenge. The problem is no reference. Having said that, if you're only looking for full image restore only (no single file or directory) I believe it's available. you might want to ask your Legato rep if they have it, but I'm pretty sure others do. It may also be hardware vendors that do it rather than software. ~F |

Hi,
If Legato Networker is not a must, then you can ask EMC about EDM SymmPath backup. But you will need another EDM server to handle that and it is not cheap. Abadonna wrote: Hi all!
