We observe, everyday some Storage groups are missing from the Backup, though the status says “Backups of storage groups completed succesfully”.

What is the leading edge technology today, that once installed and setup, will allow me to forget B/R till 2020? I have over 1PByte of data to deal with. Whats the best backup strategy? Continual incremental? Tiering?

I have some performane issues on my Subversion (SVN) server on NFS, before we migrate our data to NFS (NetApp storage) it is in a local hard drive of the server and the check-out is fast, compare to NFS the time it took is double. Does any body here have some best practices on Subversion [...]
It has been a while and weメre still working on the Sun cluster. We have narrowed the issue down to the failover/fencing agent for Sun cluster. Either it is not happy or weメre misconfigured it. ISCSI is fine, but when we use an iSCSI LUN as a quorum device bad things happen. I have 2 [...]
