Hello Experts,
We have the below enviornment.
1:- Master Server:- Windows 2008 R2 (Physical) 7.6
2:- Media Server:- Solaris 11 (Virtual)
3:-Media Serer :- Solaris 11 (Virtual)
4:- 300+ Clients with Windows and Solaris
Only 1 tape library with 1 robot.
We are taking backups through our master server means storage units are on enterprise master server. One day our both the two media servers were down still backups were happening as storage units were on master. So below are the queries.
1:- I need to understand the role of media server as we are doing backups without media server? I am very much confused with the role of media server.
2:- do we need to install drivers for library on these 2 media servers. SSO is already there. I tried to check the devices attached to the solaris media server through prtdiag -v command and could not find any drives attached/anything on these virtual media servers?
3:- How to install the media server steps if we make one more media server on virtual solaris server?
4:- Do we just need to install media server software on the O/S and it works as media server or any other configuration such as robot/drives drivers etc needs to be configured on a media server?
Thanks,
