Ahsay Universal Backup System Administrator’s Guide We back up your business 1. Release Announcement 1.1 Notes 1. AhsayUBS v2.15.0.0 is bundled with AhsayOBSR v6.15.0.0. 2. AhsayUBS v2.9.0.0 is based on a new FreeBSD 8.3 release. 3. AhsayUBS v2.7.0.0 supports backup/restore of user home data to tape drive. 4. AhsayUBS v2.7.0.0 supports the migration of additional user storage volumes. 5. The maximum total number of supported processor cores has been increased from 16 to 32. Please refer to Chapter 4.1.
Ahsay Universal Backup System Administrator’s Guide We back up your business 1.2 The UFS storage model For backwards compatibility with older AhsayUBS versions, the UFS storage model is also supported. After upgrading, the 'geom_concat.ko', 'geom_stripe.ko', and 'geom_raid5.ko' module will be loaded by the FreeBSD to support the UFS storage model. To check if these kernel modules have been loaded correctly you can run the “kldstat” command, which will return the following output.
Ahsay Universal Backup System Administrator’s Guide We back up your business 1.3 The ZFS storage model AhsayUBS v2.5.2.0 is implemented with ZFS v5 and ZPOOL v28. The existing ZPOOL(s) will not be upgraded and only newly created ZPOOL will be applied with the ZIL. As the ZFS storage model is based on a GMIRROR and ZFS design, therefore the 'geom_mirror.ko', 'opensolaris.ko', and 'zfs.ko' kernel modules will be loaded by the FreeBSD. The GEOM kernel modules used previously for UFS support 'geom_concat.
Ahsay Universal Backup System Administrator’s Guide We back up your business The other “esgpbt”, “esosfw”, and “esfmfw” System Firmware Devices are still mounted from the /etc/fstab file. The ZFS storage model is used for the following AhsayOBSR locations: i. ii. iii. iv. v. vi. %USER_HOME% %SYSTEM_HOME% %POLICY_HOME% %CONF_HOME% %WEBAPPS_HOME% %RECEIVER_HOME% The other “System Firmware Devices” such as “esgpbt”, “esosfw”, and “esfmfw” will remain unchanged as GEOM MIRROR based UFS volumes.
Ahsay Universal Backup System Administrator’s Guide We back up your business 1.4 ZFS Integrity Checking In order to safeguard the data integrity of the files on the ZFS volume, a weekly “zpool scrub” (zpool volume data integrity check) is performed starting at 00:00 every Sunday morning. To verify the checksums of all the data in the specified ZFS pools are correct. The scheduled started time of the “zpool scrub” is currently not user configurable and it cannot be disabled in this version of AhsayUBS.
Ahsay Universal Backup System Administrator’s Guide We back up your business 1.5 FreeBSD and ZFS Implementation The ZFS version 5 and ZPOOL v28 on AhsayUBS has undergone an extended period of intensive performance and load testing, which has consistently delivered superior performance and data integrity results in comparison to UFS. 1.6 Storage Model Migration For existing AhsayUBS customers who wish to migrate from UFS to ZFS storage model, only a manual migration method is available.
Ahsay Universal Backup System Administrator’s Guide We back up your business The process to setup Ahsay Universal Backup System (AhsayUBS) firmware on a machine is divided into 4 stages: 1.
