[Veritas-bu] Using rsync for the NetBackup catalog...
2006-02-12 15:14:50
Someone had posted about this and I deleted the email before I replied.
I just wanted to follow up to what other folks had said.
Basically, it works well. The only advice that I would have is to create
a snapshot of the filesystem and then run the rsync using the read-only
copy as the source. That way, the filesystem is self-consistent and you
will prevent the errors about missing files, etc.
With Solaris, look at the fsnap command. With Linux, utilize the
snapshot feature of LVM. Other OSes have similar functionality. You will
achive better and more consistent results with the snapshots than without.
Good luck!
