NetVault Plug-in for NDMP 11.4.5 - Application Notes for Oracle NAS 7000

About Backup Dump Levels

The Plug‑in for NDMP supports both Full and Incremental Backups. The backup type is determined by the Dump Level that can be set to Level 0 for a Full Backup or Levels 1 through 9 for Incremental Backups:

Level 0 or Full Backup: A Full Backup provides a backup of all the data in the selected path.
Level 1 through 9 or Incremental Backup: The Incremental Backups base themselves on the most recent lower‑level Incremental Backup, and include any data that has changed or is new since the last Full or Incremental Backup.

Dump Level

Select the type of backup that you want to perform. For a Full Backup, type or select 0. For an Incremental Backup, type or select any level from 1 to 9, based on the previous dump level.

Update /etc/dumpdates

The file “/etc/dumpdates” keeps a record of the backup, including the backup name, backup level, and snapshot time.

Leave this check box selected if your backup strategy includes Incremental Backups. The information in this file is used to determine what data must be included in an Incremental Backup.

Save File Information

This option allows you to browse individual files and directories while selecting data during restore. You cannot restore individual files and directories if you clear this check box.

Quest recommends that you leave this check box selected.

Exclude

Use this option to specify files and directories that you want to exclude from the backup. Type the complete file path, starting with a forward slash (“/”). If the full path is not provided, the plug-in excludes any item that matches the entry. To separate multiple items, use a comma.

You can use up to two wildcard characters per file. Wildcard characters can only be used at the first or the last place in the filename. For example, if you enter “/dir1/tmp*, *.o” in Exclude, the plug-in excludes the following items:

Files and directories starting with the letters “tmp” in the directory /dir1.

Filenames are case-sensitive for NFS shares and case-insensitive for CIFS shares.

c
Under Sub Jobs, configure the following settings.

Number of Backups to Run in Parallel

Type or select the number of jobs that can run concurrently. The default value is zero. With the default setting, all jobs in parallel, limited only by the availability of drives, network bandwidth, and other resources.

To achieve the required result, set the same value for each job.

Delete Auto Generated Backup Jobs on Completion

The plug-in creates individual subjobs for each volume included in a backup. If this check box is not selected, all subjobs are listed on the Job Status page. This display can create confusion when you try to view the details of the parent job. To include only a single entry for the parent job, leave this check box selected.

d
Click Save, and in the Create New Set dialog box, type a name for the set.
For more information about these sets, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.
