in the client index back to the Backup server. The Backup server keeps track of
which set of backup media a client's save set data was sent to, for potential
recovery later.
-Refer to the Chapters 3, 4, and 5 in the Solstice Backup 5.1 Administration Guide
for information on how to configure support for storage nodes and remote
devices, and Appendix A for a description of how storage nodes function.
Storage Node Save Mount Timeout -This release includes a timeout mechanism
for save mount requests on storage nodes. This allows a saveto be r edirected to
another storage node, if an appropriate volume is not mounted within the
timeout period.
Override of a Daily Forced Incremental Backup -A new attribute in the Groups
resource, named Force Incremental, provides the ability to perform more than one
full backup per 24-hour period. Use the View option from the Details menu
(nwadmin) or Options > Display Options > Hidden to view and change the
setting for Force Incremental.
-The default setting for the Force Incremental attribute is Yes. This means an
incremental backup will occur if the group is run more than once a day. Set this
attribute to No to do more than one full backup per day.
64-Bit Filesystem Support -This release includes support for 64-bit filesystems
for clients of Solaris 2.6. You can archive, back up, browse, and recover files larger
than two gigabytes. If your clients are not 64-bit capable, you can browse files
larger than 2 gigabytes, but you cannot recover them.
Pre- and Post-Processing for Client Backup Improvement -A new pre- and
post-processing command, savepnpc, allows you to invoke a set of pre-
processing commands once before the first save set on the client begins its
backup, and a set of post-processing commands that run only after the last save
set on the client completes its backup. Previously the pre- and post-processing
commands were run on each save set specified for the client. You use the
savepnpccommand in place of savein your customized backup script. The
savepnpccommand uses the same syntax as the savecommand. See Appendix
B in the Solstice Backup 5.1 Administration Guideand the man pages for more
detailed information about savepnpc.
File Device Update -If you use a file device, you must enter it as a directory path
(the same as other device types) rather than as just a filename. The path/tmpfsis
not allowed on Solaris servers.
Power Edition Performance Improvement -In this release, immediate recovery
is added for Solaris.
Clone Storage Node Affinity -This release includes clone storage node affinity.
Clone storage node affinity is the link between a client's resource of a storage
node and a list of available storage nodes to receive cloned save sets from the
storage node client. Data is cloned from media that contain the original save sets
to media on the specified clone storage node.
