Symantec NetBackup OpenStorage Best Practices with Data Domain Deduplication Storage

Backup administrators have successfully deployed Data Domain deduplication storage systems for backup and disaster recovery for many years. Together, Data Domain and Symantec now provide an option for enhanced integration between the backup application and target storage systems.

Supported with NetBackup 6.5 and higher, Data Domain OpenStorage Software provides API-based integration between Data Domain storage systems and NetBackup. This gives NetBackup administrators tremendous visibility into the properties and capabilities of the Data Domain storage systems, as well as optimized performance. In particular, NetBackup can now manage the WAN-efficient replication process on the Data Domain systems, enabling significantly enhanced disk-based data protection and disaster recovery strategies.

This white paper provides practical information for integrating Data Domain deduplication storage systems with NetBackup 6.5 environments using the OpenStorage option. Specific topics covered include:

  • OpenStorage concepts and terminology
  • Data Domain design and deployment best practices for OpenStorage
  • Configuring optimized duplication of backup jobs between Data Domain systems
  • Accomplishing disaster recovery using the non-primary copy
