Introduction Objective: Provide simple, concise steps and examples to enable the configuration of a backup and restore application with a (OVERLAND STORAGE SNAPSERVER DX2). This integration guide was created as a companion to the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide and assumes that Veeam Backup & Replication is already installed. This material will address (SnapServer DX2 WITH ISCSI AND NFS CONNECTIVITY).
Configuration Settings The configuration settings for this integration guide are as follows. We are using a single ESXi Server version 5 and also a vCenter server 5. The ESXi server has two Dualcore Intel Xeon 5130 2.0 GHz processors and 16 GB of RAM. The vCenter Server is a standalone Dual-core 2.0 GHz processor with 16 GB of RAM. We are also using a physical server as the Veeam Backup and Replication Server. This server is running Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise Server 64 bit version. There is also a CentOS 5.7 virtual server as a virtual machine for the NFS Mount Repository being used. The Overland Storage SnapServer DX2 is connected via iSCSI and NFS is used as the primary disk storage.
