Windows 2008r2 Standard, Master, and Media servers running NBU 7.5.0.4.
Hello all. Just looking for some input, best practices and guidance, for something I've never tried before.
Up until this point, our Master Netbackup server (a virtual box) has been replicated across town to our DR site using Veeam. We have moved away from Veeam, to SRM, for sending our VM's to the DR site, BUT we are not wanting to use SRM to replicate the Master server. Our catalog is 1.25TB and due to the change rate, they are not wanting to use SRM.
Given this information (and any other info I might need to provide), is there a preferred way to do this, supported and recommended by Symantec? Ive read about AIR, but also seen posts that is it not recommended for catalog replication.
If using AIR for this, I'm sure I'll have questions like "will the remote master server need the same name( I wouldnt thing this would work in the same environment). With a different name, will ALL cleints and media servers that have the NBU agent installed, have to contain to the name of this new master server?
If there is an article out there (which I'm already looking for), which lays this process out in details, please let me know.
Thanks all.
Todd
