Instead of a single backup server and tape library Veeam and Data Domain are able to provide multiple paths for backup data to flow through as well. Incremental backups have also been reduced to approximately 2 hours as well. ResultsĪfter completing the upgrades at “BOB’S BAIT AND TACKLE” they are now able to backup not just one of the Exchange DAG members, but all of the servers helping to provide Exchange services including front end servers and MTA servers, all in less than 8 hours. Veeam also integrates tightly with VMware to provide quicker backups of virtual machines by leveraging VADP (or VMware API’s for Data Protection), and reduces the load placed on the virtual infrastructure as a whole compared to legacy backup applications that introduce agents into the guest operating system.

Veeam was chosen as the backup software for “BOB’S BAIT AND TACKLE” because almost all of their servers are now virtualized, and the handful of physical machines that remain are scheduled to be virtualized in the future (they went on a fishing trip and didn’t have time to finish I guess). To facilitate the decommissioning of tape while maintaining an offsite backup, “BOB’S BAIT AND TACKLE” selected a second site across town which would be connected with dedicated fiber where they would locate their sister Data Domain appliance. The Data Domain DD620 boxes were chosen because “BOB’S BAIT AND TACKLE” wanted to reduce or eliminate the use of tape storage if possible. It also included advanced features such as Enterprise Flash Drives, aka EFD’s or SSD’s, and the EMC Fast Suite which allows for data to automatically move between tiers of disk for the best performance and cost per gigabyte.

The VNX5300 would include over 45TB of raw capacity, which would give “BOB’S BAIT AND TACKLE” years of growth (and plenty of room to store fishing pictures). The IT Team proposed to replace their storage environment with a new EMC VNX5300 fiber channel SAN and replace the tape library and HP Data Protector with a pair of Data Domain DD620’s and Veeam Backup software.

Their plans to migrate to a new ERP solution also had to be pushed back because of a lack of free storage on their HP EVA4400 SAN.

Because of this full backups of their Exchange environment required the entire weekend to run (time that could be spent on fishing), and other servers also took many hours to backup. “BOB’S BAIT AND TACKLE”s existing infrastructure was limited to approximately 10TB of SAN storage (they store a lot of secret customer info or fish pictures I guess), and backups were limited to the speed of their tape autoloader and backup server.

With a VMware upgrade on the horizon and with SAN space dwindling “BOB’S BAIT AND TACKLE” started looking for a replacement solution for their backup and storage environment. For backup they were using HP Data Protector software along with an HP tape library, which was no longer able to meet their backup window requirements. “BOB’S BAIT AND TACKLE” was running VMware 4.1 on a mostly HP environment, their SAN was an HP EVA4400, and the VMware servers are HP Blades. Industrialising the end-to-end production process means it can provide better and more cost-effective solutions, giving its customers the freedom to innovate.This is the story of a customer who recently implemented Veeam and Data Domain all names have been changed to protect the innocent, etc etc 🙂 Background For more than 20 years, OVHcloud has designed and built its own servers and datacentres - using the latest and most innovative components - and has maintained its own global fibreoptic network.
