StoreOnce Upgrade v2 to v3

Nameeert — Tue, 18 Oct 2016 14:46:46 GMT

Hi,

i am using Backup Exec 2015 with a StoreOnce D2D 4324 G2.
Software Version is 2.3.0.2.

Right now i have some issues with Housekeeping/Dedup-Ratio.
Dedup Ratio is pretty bad (1.5:1). Disks are filling up and Housekeeping received about 15.000 Jobs but seems not to process ones.

The Software Version is pretty old and i am think about upgrading to v3 hoping everything becomes better.
Does this make sense? Any improvements? I have a second Shelf installed on my StoreOnce. I don't have the original License for the Second Shelf. Am i able to export the License or will the License be migrated if i am upgrading vom v2 to v3?

Please give me a short Feedback to the upgrading process.

Many Thanks.
Kind Regards

Marco

Hello,

meanwhile i did the Upgrade from 2 to 3.
Dedup Ratio (with the same configured VTL) goes from 1:5:1 to 10:1!
Performance (with Full Backups) in a 8GBit/s SAN Environment also fine (about 30 till 40GB per Minute).

Upgrading was a good decision.

Kind Regards
Marco
