backup recovery of data to LUN.

I have two hosts vsphere 4 connect to a SAN Fibre Channel optical switch.
San, I created 3 LUN.
LUN 2 are for computers, virtual and the third ONE of backup and recovery.
How can I use the third LUN for data recovery? I can't add that LUN to the backup.
Thank you too

create a VMFS and add a VHD to the device? (http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vdr_10_admin.pdf)

  • RMAN BACKUP/RECOVERY OF DATA

    Hi friendz,.

    I have a legacy of or copied from earlier sources, RMAN backup scripts, which is the ff:

    (on the PROD server)
    rman
    run {
         CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;

    You must restore the controlfile first.

  • Attached data recovery problem size Raw LUN


    We have a problem with our unit of recovery to Date.

    We have a matrix of about 12 TB discs intended to save our VMs.

    So, I try to join VM recovery given as a raw LUN.

    I saw 10.9 TB plug in recovery. try to format... it seemed to me that it works.
    But when I ride it, it was presented as a 2 TB drive.

    Umount - 10.9 Tb
    Mont - 2 TB

    The next step... I have connected to the computer of data recovery (I mean it's just a CentOS behind). And try to make a hand partion using parted and mkfs.

    parted worked well (with TPG as the label).
    So I launched
    mkfs.ext3/dev/sdb1

    It took a lot of time, went up to
    "Writing Superblocks and filesystem accounting information.
    and it seems that it crashes.

    mkfs still present in the process, but it seems that it do nothing.

    It's probably a problem with the ext3 file system.
    But
    (a) it seems I might have an ext3 file system larger than 2 TB.
    (b) ext4 is not available on CentOS of data recovery... so what could I do?

    So... maybe someone has a tip for this problem?

    Thank you very much.

    P.S.: Just for the record, we have 3 ESXi5 host with vCenter 5.

    I'm not 100% sure why you see the wrong size RDM, but make sure you read the Administrators Guide.

    of http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vmware-data-recovery-administrators-guide-20.pdf

    Data recovery is designed to support deduplication stores that are up to one terabyte of size and each appliance backup is limited to the use of two stores of deduplication. Data recovery imposes no limits on the size of the stores of deduplication, but if the size of a store exceeds a terabyte, performance may be affected. While data recovery imposes no limits on deduplication store size, other factors limit the actions of deduplication. So, the stores of deduplication are limited to:
    -500 GB on CIFS network shares
    -1 to VMDK and RDM

  • Backup system state data

    I want the XP Home System State backup as the data I plan on the rationalization of the registry and of course need the backup in the case where I live.

    Microsoft has a backup program on the XP home CD.

    Toshiba has a recovery disk so I don't have the CD.

    I don't think I needed the backup program that I have another backup program, but I was wrong. To back up the system state data, my backup program requires that I have copy their help:

    To back up the locking system files under Windows NT4, 2000 and XP systems dfg backup XP uses components of NT backup, which is part of the operating system. In Windows XP Home Edition that the NT backup is not installed by default, so you must install it manually. The NT backup is located on the Windows XP CD in the \VALUEADD\MSFT\NTBACKUP directory. If you need to restore files in the System State, you will need to use the NT backup after you have it extracted from Zip archive.

    So it seems the only way to save the complete registry and the boot files is to install Microsoft backup program.

    It's on the the recovery Toshiba Satellite 2450 this disc anyone know? It is not the disk tools.

    I can't find anything on a backup program listed here.

    Appreciate any help.

    Hi TW,.

    Check if you have a "VALUEADD" folder installed on your HARD drive. Some OEM installations actually install to the hard drive. You should find the Microsoft Backup utility in there.

  • file backup & recovery

    The computer that I bought a couple of years comes with Windows XP.  At the time I used Windows One Care for security, backup and recovery, and to grant to the top of my computer.  Microsoft more One Care via my provider online.  Now, I use Microsoft Essentials for my safety but do not have a backup and restore program good, fast and reliable.  There is a Windows program that will duplicate the program used on One Care?  I currently use the backup that does not compress files and takes hours and several backup discs.  It also disables my DVD player that prevent me from copying the files to the disc.  I could really use Windows One Care back again.

  • Using more of a VMWare backup recovery

    Hi all

    I'm sitting here und think next idea:

    We have 10 servers that must be saved. We use a VDR (VM Backup Recovery) for this. Thus, sometimes the catalog crashes and it takes neerly a day to fix it. While this time I can´t of backup or restore anything.

    These backups are on the same SAN as my ESX machines. So I have the big problem, if everything crashes (raid or more than 1 HDD) I have no chance to recover anything.

    Yes, I know that this is not 100% optimal. either way... we have no money to buy a second SAN!

    the idea was to develop an other VDR and connect it to a Terastation. Speed is absolutely secondary. This VDR would save computers same like the first VDR. (not at the same time, for example SQL Server is saved on VDR1 on VDR2 and 06:00 on 09:00)

    The biggest would be:

    -If VDR 1 catalog crashes, VDR2 works and I can fix the VDR1 without missing the backups or recoveryoptions

    -If my STI SAN crashing, I can use my Terastation to fix everything (the speed is secondary)

    What do you think of this idea?

    Good bye

    Andy

    You can define 2 different backup locations in a single device. So you can save on Monday for the first location and Tuesday for the second and so on. When an integrity check runs more than 24 hours, you have the second location-data store to restore on the same device operations. If you have enough backup-time, you can also save each VM twice in one day in two places at different times. In the event of a disaster you will be lucky and maybe lose only a location of data store and have all your backups without waitiing for the completion of the audit of integrity or something as a recataloguer. Up to now this works very well in my environment with 5 appliances and 180 VM. I use no more than 30 virtual machines for a single device, because integrity, check runs throughout.

  • Install the new hard drive, I have no os or backup recovery disks

    I have a HP G62-340US notebook pc-product # XH066UA #ABA, OS is windows 7 64 bit.   The hard drive does not work so I'm relpacing with a new.  I have no os disks and any backup recovery.  When I turn on the laptop there that peripheral black splash screen States 3FO hard drive not found.

    Should I order the kit Media Ststem recovery for consumer notebook, which is a set of 4 discs?   and that's all that I need to install to return to the State wherever it was when I bought it new.  Are there other discs that I need to order or just that?

    While the recovery discs are just a bootable copy of the recovery partition D, operating after replacing the HARD drive, it will reinstall all the original scores (Windows C, HP_TOOLS, recovery D etc.) on the new drive - the machine will be in the State it was at the time of purchase.

  • Using a USB flash drive for backup more driver and application backup recovery

    I have a 32 GB flash drive I used to create a recovery for my Aspire S7 backup using Windows 8.1. I understand that in creating this backup everything on the flash drive is deleted before creating backup. Can I now use this drive for other purposes, e.g., pilots and backup applications, pictures, documents, etc., or this flash drive now should he remain dedicated to the sole purpose of being a backup recovery?

    Hi zimmerbob

    I keep as a backup to dedicated recovery flash drive and use one for drivers & applications.

    It is always wise to keep the recovery discs, as well as the recovery disks. Flash memory is quite inexpensive for the moment!

  • Recovery partition Vista (WRE) ERROR cannot open C:\RECOVERY. DAT

    Hello

    I have a big red error and "unable to open file C:\RECOVERY. DAT" when I try to start my Windows Vista (Windows Recovery Environment) restore Partition on my old Asus F3E (I can start the Vista operating system without problems, but not the recovery partition).»

    I read this and other messages that suggest to use the F8 key to access the Advanced Boot Options menu and select "repair your computer".

    My problems are:

    * My Vista Business doen't have an option to "Create a system repair disc" and I don't have such a drive.

    * On the Advanced Boot Options 'Repair your computer' is not listed as an option, so I can't access "System Recovery Options", I guess that's not present in my system.

    * bootsect.exe is not present on my system.

    (1) where can I get a "System repair disc" disc (trust)? I have another pc with Windows 7. Is it the same if I create a disc repair system there and I use it with Vista?

    (2) where I can get the bootsect.exe tool? It boasts such a disk or what?

    (3) bootsect/nt60 ALL if applies also in my case, fix the trunk of my Vista recovery environment? What happens if I try bootsect/nt60 D: where D: is the drive letter of the recovery partition which I can come up with tools such as ext2fsd? What happens if I use the option "Startup Repair" if I can get a system repair disc?
