Supported data transfer methods for NetBackup appliances
Table: Supported data transfer methods for NetBackup appliances describes the supported data transfer methods between NetBackup appliances. Specifically, NetBackup appliance models 5220, 5230, 5240, 5330 or 5340. The information includes whether the supported method uses Fibre Channel (FC) or TCP/IP.
Note:
The supported methods over TCP/IP are also supported with non-appliance NetBackup servers. But optimized duplication and Auto Image Replication over FC are only supported withNetBackup appliance products. Depending on the HBA configuration, some appliances cannot be used as the target appliance for optimized duplication and Auto Image Replication.
Table: Supported data transfer methods for NetBackup appliances
Method | Source | Target | Operation |
|---|---|---|---|
FC | 52xx/53xx | 52xx/53xx | Optimized duplication |
FC | 52xx/53xx | 52xx/53xx | Auto Image Replication |
FC | SAN Client | 52xx/53xx | Media server deduplication |
TCP/IP | 52xx/53xx | 52xx/53xx | Optimized duplication |
TCP/IP | 52xx/53xx | 52xx/53xx | Auto Image Replication |
Table: Unsupported data transfer methods for NetBackup appliances describes the unsupported data transfer methods for NetBackup Deduplication and NetBackup appliances.
