NetBackup Data Synchronization
When an asset is imported, is clicked, or SyncNetBackupData is called in the API, the asset is flagged for synchronization. This marks the asset as ready for synchronization and it is picked up by the System Update. This process imports the protection and images, then recalculates traffic light status.
The task processes batches of 100 assets for 5 minutes (by default) or until there are no assets requiring import. Assets added longest ago are processed first. All assets have the same priority initially but if a Backup Now is performed, that asset is marked as high priority.
If a synchronization fails, the synchronization is locked for a period of time. This lock allows other assets without errors to be processed.
The integration settings that are listed are relevant to the NetBackup Data Synchronization:
Image Import Batch Processing (minutes) (NetBackup Adapter integration section)
The System Update gets data for a period of time while there are computers marked for synchronization. This defaults to five minutes.
Image Import Lock Delay (minutes) (NetBackup Adapter integration section)
This value defines how long to lock a computer image synchronization for a computer if its image retrieval fails. This defaults to 60 minutes.
