Current Scalability Challenges

 Media Server Scalability

– “We often experience data inconsistencies”
– “Script to check databases files images, media DB and
VSN DB) if all is sync” 185370
 Catalog size and catalog backup
– “Dynamic catalog backup button” 185672
– “We are a 24/7 shop and have no quiet time for catalog
backup”
 Limited Scheduling capability by the NBU scheduler
– “Customer wants bpsched to be able to schedule archives.”
Enterprise Media Manager

 Replace distributed device and media databases

with a centralized relational database
 Improved scalability and performance through
multithreading and reduced response time for
MM requests
 Drive sharing among media servers and NDMP
hosts (SSO for NDMP)
 Automatic drive reconfiguration on reboot
Catalog Backup Enhancements

 Hot catalog backup, full or incremental

 Catalog protection and recovery wizards
 Catalog backup tape spanning
 Alternate location restore
Intelligent Resource Manager

 Replaces the current job scheduler (bpsched)

 Order of magnitude improvement in scalability
 Scheduling and resource management of
prioritized jobs (backup, duplication, catalog
backup, import, verify, synthetic backup, vault,
alternate backup)
 User interface to cancel, suspend, resume, and
restart entries in the job queue
 Handle composite jobs composed of main job
(parent), and secondary jobs (children)
