Best practices for instant recovery operations
The following best practices are advised during the Instant Recovery Wizard operations.
Instant recovery can be simultaneously performed for about ten virtual machines for a single NetBackup master server. However, for performance reasons, it is recommended to limit the operation to 2 to 3 virtual machines if the NetBackup storage type is PureDisk. Consult your backup administrator for more details.
If an instant recovery operation (activate/reactivate/deactivate/done) fails, check the NetBackup event logs using the vSphere Web Client interface (Veritas NetBackup > Events), for more details.
Remove from the plug-in any NetBackup master servers in an unused, unreachable, or shutdown state.
On the Instant Recovery Wizard screens, wait for the ongoing IR operation to complete. While the cursor indicates a busy state, do not click on other options.
