Table 66 Volume Types That Can Be Used With Veeam Storage Integration - Fujitsu ETERNUS DX S5 Series Design Manual

3. SAN Functions
Server Linkage Functions
- Virtual Volumes (VVOLs)
- Volumes with SnapOPC or EC Advanced Copy sessions
- Volumes with SnapOPC+ sessions created by ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager
• Veeam Backup & Replication jobs or operations may fail during a RAID migration, a Thin Provisioning
Volume balancing, or a Flexible Tier Pool balancing.
• Veeam Storage Integration uses SnapOPC+.
Thin Provisioning Volumes (TPVs) or Flexible Tier Volumes (FTVs) are used as SnapOPC+ copy destination
volumes.
Specify the appropriate value for the maximum Thin Provisioning Pool capacity by taking the total
target volume capacity for Veeam Storage Integration and the number of management generations into
consideration.
For more details about the maximum Thin Provisioning Pool capacity setting, refer to "Thin Provisioning
Pool Management" in "ETERNUS Web GUI User's Guide".
Guidelines for the maximum Thin Provisioning Pool capacity
Maximum Thin Provisioning Pool capacity ³ total capacity of TPVs and FTVs + total capacity of the
target volume for Veeam Storage Integration ´ (number of management generations + 1)
• It is not recommended to use multiple Veeam Backup & Replication for managing a single ETERNUS DX.
In such configuration, an error might occur at the jobs that are in conflict with each other when being
executed from multiple Veeam Backup & Replication.
Note
• Veeam Storage Integration supports the following volumes.
