NetVault 12.4 - CLI Reference Guide

Quest DR Series Systems: To perform optimized replication, both the source and target Quest DR Series systems must be running the same release version of the DR OS. Replication is not supported between systems that run different releases of the OS.

For example, to replicate data from a source system that is running DR OS 2.1.x, the target system must be running the same OS release version. Replication is unsuccessful if the target system is running DR OS release 2.0.x or 3.0.x.

NOTE: When optimized replication and backups are performed simultaneously on a Quest DR Series system, the backup throughput is affected.

DD Boost-Enabled Data Domain Systems: The secondary copy backups between two DD Boost-Enabled Data Domain Systems use the managed file-level replication feature provided by DD Boost.

File-level replication requires the DD Boost Replicator license, which must be installed on both the source and the destination Data Domain systems.

•

If the source and target Data Domain systems are running different versions of the Data Domain OS, then for replication to be successful, the target system must be running the higher version of the OS.

Create an Advanced Options set “AdvOptBU” with a backup life of 5 full backups. Enable network compression and backup verification, and run a postscript entitled “jobdone”:

nvsetcreate -type AB -setname AdvOptBU -backuplife 5 -netcompress TRUE
-verify TRUE -postscript jobdone
