Hi there
I'm currently setting up SharePoint backup using SMSP version 7.0
You have to setup a Storage Policy on a NetApp CIFS share or LUN.
I have two different setups one using CIFS and one using a LUN.
What I do not understand is that neither the CIFS nore the LUN is backed up, that it, no snapshot is created as a part of the backup cycle.
Am I missing something here, or is it just by design ?
All the SQL databases are backed up using SMSQL including a SnapVault update.
Do I have to set this up myself on this Storage Policy device ?
Also on one of the SharePoint servers, there is a Microsoft Indexing service (but nu SQL server) which also has to be located on a NetApp LUN, so I have installed SnapDrive, and moved the index to this LUN.
On this LUN I do get snapshots as part of the backup job, but I would also like it to do a SnapVault Update... again, do I have to set this up myself ? No dataset is created on the DFM server, only the SQL Server SnapManager datasets are created as par of that setup procedure...
Maybe these two LUNs are not too important ? 🙂
