Is there a way to get W2K8R2 to flag all of the iSCSI drives as read-only?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06381093869475898202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4270346497183643494.post-58750190415345627892013-05-04T03:48:00.196-07:002013-05-04T03:48:00.196-07:00I'm currently not using the SAN transport beca...I'm currently not using the SAN transport because of the possibility of wiping out a VMFS datastore, just to risky trying to tell Windows to not do that. Problem now though is the VMware environment is to big for the NBD transport mode and it uses the VMware management network for the through host backups so can impact other things. This is the first time I have seen the ability to set the VMFS disks as Read Only, very interesting. I would think restores could use NBD transport so they wouldn't have to be changed back to Read Write. NBD is the only option for restores right now anyway with BE 2012.

I have already scheduled a couple of your blogs about BE to go out via my Twitter feed as well as promoting it within Symantec to get the word out to a wider audience. Hit me up at @PackMatt73 via DM and I will forward you my contact info. Would love to hear more about your experience with BE, specifically with regards to VMware. I would also be happy to connect you with members of the development team if you have any questions.<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />Matt Stephenson<br />SymantecAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12919830729762802561noreply@blogger.com
