We’ve worked with Symantec to develop a migration strategy and finalize the SOW for our engagement.
We resolved an issue with a failed volume group on the BlueArc. Due to a drive having communication issues on the fiber channel loops, two drives were marked as “failed” by the controller resulting in an entire volume group going offline. Once the drive was identified that was causing the additional traffic, we were able to shut down the controller and re-seat the drive. We were then able to replace both the actual failed drive and the drive causing the additional I/O on our fiber channel loops.
I have created a Perl script in our backup environment to monitor all failed backup jobs and distribute an e-mail with a listing of any clients that failed and which savesets failed.
We have connected the production Archive servers (its-hcwnar03,04,05) to the SAN and connected them to the Exchange 2007 CX4 Storage Array. Storage has been presented to facilitate the production deployment of the E-mail Archive service.
