Media Server Load BalancingMedia Server Load Balancing: delivering high availability and dynamic capacity optimization

World-class leader:

• Meet SLA commitments: ensure data is stored in the right place, for the right time

• Reduce storage costs: store important data on disk, less important data on tape

• Reduce risk: ensures data is migrated to tape before deleting from disk

• Reduce administrative cost: automate data management with lifecycle policies

Works With:

• Tape

• Flexible Disk Option

• PureDisk Deduplication Option

• Virtual Tape Option

• OpenStorage Disk Option

• Automatic HA / failover

• If jobs fail they are re-started on a new server

• Clients backup to least busy media server

• Jobs are directed to Media Server withlowest utilization

Before:

Disk Pooling & Intelligent Capacity Mgmt

Disk Pooling & Intelligent Disk Capacity Management: intelligently managing the shared disk pool

Key Values:

• Reduced disk cost: better utilization through intelligent allocation

• Faster backup / restore: backups are kept on a single volume when possible

• Higher reliability: avoids “disk full” conditions by better managing disk pool

• Tiered storage: ensures that most important backups remain on disk longer

Works With:

• Flexible Disk Option

• PureDisk Deduplication Option

• OpenStorage Disk Option

Capacity Optimization:

• Automatic selection of disk target of the right size

• Spans volumes if backup is bigger than largest volume

Intelligent Expiration:

• Disk capacity is managed by value of the data

• Least important data deleted first, but only after movedto tape

NetApp, HP, IBM, Sun, both enterprise & mid-range

arrays

• Solaris & Windows Media Servers

(Windows available in future MP)

• Disk pooled and shared between multiple media servers

SAN Client: fast backups over the SAN to a media server

• Fast backup over the SAN: 150 MB/sec single stream, multiple streams possible per client,

500MB/sec through a media server, aggregate*

• Lighter agent footprint: lightweight SAN client as an alternative to installing a full SAN

Media Server on the client

• High Availability: can configure redundant fibre channel paths for SAN client, or can also use

IP network as backup path

Works With:

• SAN client runs on Windows, Solaris, Linux,

AIX, and HP-UX

• Requires a Qlogic HBA in the media server

in first release

• Solaris & Linux Media Servers only in first

release

• 150 MB/sec backups*, up to 500 MB/sec aggregate* through a media server

• Allows heterogeneous SAN clients to backup into Solaris or Linux media servers

• Alternative to SAN Media Server for backup to disk

• Can send data to Flexible Disk Option, OpenStorage devices, or PureDisk (tape in future releases)

office, desktop / laptop)

Works With:

• Any disk connected over any connection

(DAS, SAN, NAS, iSCSI)

• Any NetBackup client

• Backup into PureDisk from any existing NetBackup client

• PureDisk integrated with NetBackup through the OpenStorage API / plugin

SharedDisk

• Incomplete platform coverage– Solaris– Windows– Linux: MP release will add support– HP-UX: Future – AIX: Future
