Veritas Vs SQL Script?
Mar 30, 2001Hello,
We use Veritas BE with SQL agent to backup all the company's databases. Has anyone used Veritas for SQL backups and restores, adn what are the pros/cons verses some scripting.
I've been in a few recovery situations with veritas although limited it's easy for a network analyst to restore, but I prefer scripts to restore. Our SQL shop is young and still in alot of it's development phase. I'd like to break the trend we have now and write some decent batch/sql scipts for backups?
Right now veritas backs up all our NT boxes, hence why we use it for SQL. I have scripts, but haven't implimented. Should we switch to scripts or stay with Veritas?
thanks,
AJ

Backup With Veritas
Aug 29, 2000I have Veritas Backup Exec. The software does a good job with the backup. However a few of my SQL 7 Databases the files are skipped even though I have told the software to lock the file. Specificaly this happens on my EPICOR Accounting Databases. Is there a command I can issue to stop the SQL server from running prior to the backup and then re-start after the backup has completed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
View 1 Replies View RelatedVeritas Backup And SQL MP
Jun 8, 2008HI All,
Bit confuse and please help to setup correct way of backup.
I got SQL Server 2000 and Veritas Backupexec 10.0
So what is your recommended way to backup SQL Servers.
1. Veritas Backup agent with Differtial (Mon-Thu) and full backup on Friday?
Set SQL recovery Model to FULL and only backup Transaction (.TRN) logs to server disk , No backup (.bak) from MP ?
or
2. Create SQL MP and backup to SQL Server DB & Logs to disk every night- full backup
Keep only 1 day worth of backup. ( not enough space)
Use veritas to backup .bak file only not using that veritas SQL Backup?
Or knowledge me with the proper method?
Veritas SQL Agent Vs. SQL .bak
Jul 23, 2005Could someone please explain the pros/cons of installing the VeritasSQL agent versus backing up the .bak file generated by SQL Server? Ihave worked with both setups in the past, but never really understoodwhat made one better than another.TIA,Brad

Veritas Database Backup
Mar 8, 2005Anyone have experience using Veritas to backup SQL Server databases?
I just started with a client who's SQL Server froze with the CPU pegged at 99% on my first day. I think it might be related to using Veritas SQL Server component to run hot backups of the database, while the SQL Server Agent was running simultaneous independent backups. All this on a live database of course, while a user was completing a large transaction.
I advised them to disable the Veritas SQL Server backup component and let SQL Server back up its own databases. Then use Veritas just to archive SQL Server's backup files.
I think I saw a similiar issue at a previous client site that was using Veritas. Please let me know if you have prior experience in this area, and your evaluation of the quality of Veritas database backup component.
Thanks!
Veritas Backup Very Slow
Jan 28, 2004Hi,
The last five days, the SQL Server Production backups to tape have been incredibly slow. Actually, they don't complete because they have been going on for 60 hours. Everything on the servers (clustered production environment) seems fine. Nothing untoward unusual. Any ideas what could be causing it? We're thinking of rebooting tonight.
Any help would be appreciated.

When i've installed Backup exec 7.0 or 7.2 there are no problems.
(also with SQL Agent)
Does somebody know to reolve this?

Veritas Not Truncating Log Files After Database Backups

View 4 Replies View RelatedRestore Of Database Via Veritas 9.1 Fails With Communication Error
May 24, 2006We are running SQL 2000 sp4, only one user database (SAP) the database is 63 GB.
The ldf files were trashed so I went to tape to restore.
We are using veritas backup exec 9.1 sp4. Veritas is on the same server. I can restore the master db and the msdb fine. However when we attempt to restore the DEV db it runs for 2 hours and then fails with a communication error from veritas.
When we restore the master the DEV db comes up suspect as there are no files for it to attach to) so we cannot attach to it to restore, so I have deleted it and attempted to restore - same communication error. I have recreated a db named DEV with the mdf etc created to the size needed plus some to be sure, no good same behavior (behavior described below).
The job starts and it creates all the folders for the database (there are 1 MDF, 5 NDF, and 4 LDF files each in its own folder). Then it begins to create teh individual files it gets ~half way through at about an hour-hour and fifteen. During this time there are a large number of writes being performed by SQL (I assume it is creating the structures). Then it switches over to reading from tape a large number of read by beengine for another 45-1.5 hours then the job fails with the error unable to communicate with the device. I ahve noticed that once it starts reading from tape the db is gone from enterprise manager, and the mdf etc. files that were being created are now gone.
Help this has gone on for three days!!!

Running A SQL Backup After A Veritas Backup Job
Jun 27, 2001I run an Operating system backup nightly using Veritas Backup exec (v8), immediatly after I run a SQL written backup job.
1. Can I use the same tape? Appending to the media that Veritas has written to?
2. How do I run the backup from cmd line from within Veritas? It has an option to "execute after backup job:"
- How do I run a SQL job from operating system?
Thanks,
