I do not know if that would be the answer. Can you dedup an Oracle hot backup
using DD? Is anyone using DD for dedup of the DB running in local containers.
Unfortunately someone made the decision to go down this road and I need a real
world solution. I do not have time or the resources to eval and test different
solutions.
Thanks for you input.

Hello,
Would DataDomain VTL apply to your issue ? It can do dedupe and replication.
Thanks

Backups in Solaris containers
All,
We seem to be on the cutting edge and no vendor seems to have the right answer.
I am wondering if anyone has been down this road and has anything that might be
helpful.
Environment
Solaris 10 containers running Oracle, UDB, and SYBASE databases.
Our first option would be to use frame based replication. EMC replication
manager is not supported in containers and HDS has no frame based replication
tool.
We are now looking at using the modules to run hot backups to physical/virtual
tape. We are working with the vendor to see if we can present FC tape devices
to the local zones.
We could continue down the road of DB dumps but we are using up too much
storage to accomplish this. We have thought about clustering the DB dump file
systems to a dedicated storage node and having the DB dump file systems backed
up that way but again we are trying to minimize our SAN consumption.
Has anyone in Happy Backup land been presented with these challenges and
implemented anything that works remotely well.
We are talking about over 100 DB instances over 48 physical servers with I am
sure 100 local containers.
