Veritas NetBackup™ Snapshot Client Administrator's Guide

About configuration for EMC_TimeFinder_Mirror

The EMC_TimeFinder_Mirror method uses the Symmetrix Business Continuance Volume (BCV) to allow NetBackup to perform mirror backups. For this method, the Snapshot Client source devices are assumed to be STD devices and the target snapshot resources are assumed to be BCV devices. BCV devices are normally created by your EMC technical representative. The EMC_TimeFinder_Mirror method requires that the source device or standard device (STD) be fully synchronized (established) with the snapshot device (BCV). BCV devices must already exist before they can be synchronized and used in a NetBackup backup.
