Migrating from another storage type to deduplication
To migrate from another NetBackup storage type to deduplication storage,
Symantecrecommends that you agethe backup imageson the otherstorage until
theyexpire. Symantecrecommends thatyou agethe backupimages ifyou migrate
from disk storage or tape storage.
You should not use the same disk storage for NetBackup deduplication while you
use it for other storage such as AdvancedDisk, BasicDisk, or SharedDisk. Each
typemanagesthe storagedifferently andeachrequires exclusiveuseof thestorage.
Also, the NetBackup Deduplication Engine cannot read the backup images that
another NetBackup storage type created. Therefore, you should age the data so
itexpires before yourepurpose the storagehardware. Untilthat data expires,two
storage destinations exist: the media server deduplication pool and the other
storage. After the images on the other storage expire and are deleted, you can
repurpose it for other storage needs.
