Hi all,
We're about o refresh our Netapps and move to OnTap 7.0.1 and back them up with Legato Networker 7.2, and hopefully NDMP, though we currently do NFS mounts to the (Solaris 5.8, E450) backup server.
We'd like to setup one large aggregate, with a small root FlexVol and a large large large data FlexVol, with a bunch of qtrees inside the flexvol.
So what are others doing to make their backups run quicky, and their restores to run reliably? I've got the release notes for Networker 7.2 and I see the limitation of one (1) million files in DAR restores, and since I know our volumes have lots more files than that... it could be a problem.
But maybe if we broke down our backups on a per-qtree basis, that would work?
What are other people doing for backups? Any gotchas or performance tuning hints would be appreciaited.
