How to configure NetWorker CCR Clone Jobs to Remote DD?
My situation is that I have three sites each with Data Domain and storage nodes all managed by a single NetWorker instance. Two of the sites backup clients locally then data is cloned with CCR to the third site for immediate offsite requirements and kept for 2 weeks for DR purposes. My question is related to clone jobs and ddboost. The setup below shows an example of the current setup.
Current setup
Site 1
Storage Node 1 ( Backup pools and Tape out)
device example
ind_fs.001
LTO5 Tape 1
Storage Node 2 ( Used for Site replication has backup pools and clone pools )
device example
DRSite_ind_fs.001
ind_fs.001
Clone Job
Source Storage Node = Site 1 - Storage Node 2
Destination Storage Node = Site 1- Storage Node 2
This has been working fine for some time however I have to present every device for backup and clone pool on Storage Node 2. We are getting an error that I have reached the maximum number of Devices on a Storage Node. I am trying to balance and reduce the number of devices.
Questions
- If I change the clone job to not having the source and destination it would allow me not to have to present all the backups pools to Storage Node 2 but I have been told using the same will use DDBoost.
Source Storage Node = Site 1 -Storage Node 1
Destination Storage Node = Site 1 -Storage Node 2
Will I still be using DDBOOST?
- If the above still uses DDBOOST should I change to use the remote storage node as the destination of clone jobs.
Source Storage Node = Site 1 -Storage Node 1
Destination Storage Node = Site DR -Storage Node DR
