I can create a job to snap a LUN & present it, with a drive letter, to a W2K3 server running the host agent.
The problem is that if I try to snap 2 LUN's and present them to the same host the job fails, claiming that the second drive letter can't be assigned. (Obviously, the drive letters are different.)
I have also tried performing the same task with 2 seperate jobs, and the second job will fail with the same error.
This seems like a reasonable request, even if it is a Windows server.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: EVA 5000 & Business Copy
What types of disks are you using? Basic or dynamic disks? And originate the two "source" VDISKs from the same server or from two different ones?

Re: EVA 5000 & Business Copy
Question: "...if I try to snap 2 LUN's and present them to the same host..." -- Is "same host" the host where the 2 LUNs normally live, or do you mean just a second host?
Question: "...and the second job will fail with the same error." -- Will the second job work if the first job is NOT run?

Re: EVA 5000 & Business Copy
I have one Win2K3 host, say a database server, with "logs" & "data" volumes presented.
I can snap either logs, or data, and present to a new host.
However, I can't do both logs & data, as the job fails with the "drive already in use" error.

Re: EVA 5000 & Business Copy
If this proves to be correct, it does look as though Business Copy is not the greatest piece of s/w the world has ever seen.
Any thoughts on how else to schedule this sort of operation?
HP promote this product to enable non-intrusive backups, etc. I don't really want to sit around in the office in my pyjamas every night manually making snapshots and presenting them to servers.

Re: EVA 5000 & Business Copy
A dynamic disk can be made of multiple virtual disks, but on the EVA you cannot snap multiple VDs at once, so there is always a small window of inconsistency.
