When a Windows backup is running (via the normal network to the DP Cell manager and then via SAN to tape) it is interrupted when an Ignite is starting on another HPUX server (which has access to the same tape library for regular backups). This ignite is not going to tape, but to disk of another HPUX server.
However, it seems that whe an Ignite is launched, it does some kind of Hardware scan, which interupts the backup that is running to the tape library.
I rescheduled the Ignites creation, so that there is no overlap anymore with the normal backups... However, I would like to know if this is normal Ignite behavior. (I opened a HW call for this at HP, but I have to log a new call because it is SW related... This way is probably faster ;)
thanks for your help

Re: Ignite - SAN
Both Unix servers are able to see the SAN tape drives (I guess all in the same zone). Ignite on one server (not using the tape drive for the backup), interupts a windows backup running through the DP unix server to SAN tape drive.
there are 2 drives in the library...

Re: Ignite - SAN
So it is normal that creating an Ignite on System A (to disk!!), can influence the SAN tape used by system B (because they both have access to the same drive)?
This means that you can't create ignite images of servers that are connected to the same SAN tape drive (if you want to use this device for other backups at that time)?
