Executive summary This paper provides information about how to set up the Dell DR Series system to run Virtual Synthetic Backup on NetBackup (NBU). This document is a quick reference guide and does not include all DR Series system deployment best practices. See the DR Series Deduplication Appliance documentation other data management application best practices whitepapers for additional information. For additional data management application (DMA) best practice whitepapers, see the DR Series system documentation at http://www.dell.com/support/Manuals/us/en/19/Product/powervault- dr4100. Note: The DR Series system and NetBackup screenshots used in this document may vary slightly, depending on the DR Series system firmware version and NetBackup version used. Terminology • Dedupe backup: In this mode, deduplication is done on the client and then the deduplicated packets are sent to the DR Series system. • Passthrough backup: In this mode, deduplication is done on the DR Series system after data is transferred from the client. • Synthetic backup: A synthetic backup is identical to a regular full backup in terms of data, but it is created when data is collected from a previous, older full backup and assembled with subsequent incremental backups. • Virtual Synthetic Backup/Optimized synthetic Backup: A synthetic backup that avoids the need to move data across the network. The media server tells the storage server which full and incremental images to use to create the synthetic image. 4 Setting Up the Dell™ DR Series System on Symantec NetBackup to Use Virtual Synthetic Backup | February 2014
