Actually I am saying something else than 3 2 1 backup. The idea of using two different media, with one of them as tape, may appeal to some people, but frankly why not to punched cards alsoThe inconvenience and uncertainty of tapes does nothing to recommend them to me as a form of storage. If you want an air gap, use external drives and unplug them when done. The point I came to with all of our discussion, is that the only reliable backup is a canonical copy with a reliable cryptographic thumbprint such as SHA. Because windows deduplication makes it so easy to recreate the original file, it makes sense to have an undeduplicated copy at the source end, use deduplication and replication in the middle to make offsite copies, then reflate the backup file at the remote end, where it can be checked against its own thumbprint. If the thumbprint doesnt match, you alert the person in charge of backups. Meanwhile you have all the previous canonical backups at both ends. Or in many places. Having multiple copies along the way is a great idea. Putting them in separate places is a great idea. But validating the original and ultimate backup file is the most important thing, and trumps all other considerations for me. It takes away the concern about possible corruption of the deduplication store because the deduplication volume is only used as temporary storage for the essential backup copies and as a transport mechanism to make replication over our teeny internet connections feasible. Of course, it is also storage for many non essential copies of the backup. RE Also, it is possible to backup deduplicated volumes more effectively according to Microsoft When I first read this many moons ago, I thought aha now we have replication. But actually this is a suggestion for replication not the description of a working application. Other pages show Microsoft telling us that you can backup a deduplicated volume in full to a backup file without reflating the files, and then restore to a new deduplication volume. But this means you are always backing up a full volume. True deduplication replication only moves the changes for each backup. This table lists all of the software and firmware on this Service Pack for ProLiant. For more information on this deliverable go to www. Test Hpe hpe0s37HPE0S37 Which solution provides the lowest latency and highest bandwidth for network connectivity for UPC cl. There is no 4. x and no 5. Only the latest Versions of ESXi 5. To install ESXi you should use HP Customized ESXi Images. Source HP. I talk about this more at windowsdeduplication. All storage is temporary. Nitpicking over the reliability of a temporary storage method obscures the true issue, which is the reliability of the backup content. Hashing the source copy and comparing on the destination copy settles the issue. Windows deduplication reduces the cost of deduplication to a pittance. Vim Open All Folds In File. Your arguments about not trusting all your backups to a deduplication solution have convinced me more than you intended. Dont trust all your backup files to any deduplication solution, Windows Deduplication or otherwise. Windows Xp Service Pack 3 Hun. Use deduplication for what it is good for, the storage and replication of many similar backup files. Keep the essential backups in an original but compressed form at both ends of the DR continuum. Hash and check the hash of all essential copies. This gives you more than you have now. It is easy to get caught up in the twinkling of new technology. The real issue is not how much a byte of backup costs, it is how much does a failed backup cost my company. That number could be astronomical.
