Thread: EMC (Legato Networker) Backup Client

  1. #1

    Default EMC (Legato Networker) Backup Client

    We have an EMC Legato Networker Backup Server running on Solaris 10
    with Sun StorEdge L500 tape library connected with fibre channel.

    Is there any way to backup DSS to the Networker Server?
    Or do we have to buy another backup server software?

    We have a small update for this but it is not documented. If you email support@open-e.com we will send it to you. This small update will only work for certain versions (1.23 and 1.32), also if you plan to upgrade to future versions you will have to wait until next small update is ready - just keep that in mind.
    All the best,

    what would be even cooler would be to NDMP enable open-e products, is that on the radar anywhere?

    it would universalize the backups for sure.. any backup software thats worth anything can talk NDMP

    NDMP is on the road map but no set date.

    Lev - I spoke to soon about the Legato update we just recently stop supplying this small update as there have been issues. We will look into this but need additional time.
    All the best,

    Is there any specific date that you can think of?

    We have to make a decision very soon, because without the backup we can not use
    the DSS at the full power.

    P.S. NDMP backup can also be a solution, although it seems that the NDMP backup is slower than the "normal" backup.

    Not sure as there is a lic. issue - we are trying to talk to them about this. They may not move as fast as us. We are talking about other options, we just need more time. So sorry for the delay
    All the best,

    Actual Legato update is still in beta state and dedicated for specified
    clients only.

    You can still backup the SMB shares without Legato client for DSS and NAS-R3.

    1. On DSS in "Config->NAS Resources->Users" add user "legato",
    2. Chose "legato" user from list and add shares to access list,
    3. In function "Config->Nas settings->SMB settings" add user "legato" to
    superusers lists,
    4. Please map DSS shares as Network Drive on your Windows with Legato Server
    and client installed using "legato" user for authenticate,
    5. From Menu Start->Programs->Legato NetWorker run "Networker User" program,
    6. Now choose Operation->Backup from NetWorker menu and data from mapped disk
    to backup.
    All the best,

    Thank you for reply. We are going to use NFS backup
    because our backup server is UNIX based. The Windows
    ACLs will be lost I assume.
