Overnight Backup to NAS

TOM_THE_FREAK · 20 days

You're not going to get true gigabit speeds (125 MB/s). Using backup exec to my NAS, I believe I got about 40 MB/s. Keep in mind that you can set backup exec from "slow" to "fast" which represents how much system resources backup exec will use and will affect transfer speed significantly. According to this bandwidth conversion calculator, you shouldn't have any trouble getting the transfer completed overnight.
It will attach to the NAS as a network share, but not a network "drive" as it will not be mounted on the system. If you decide the mount the network share of your NAS to your server, you could back it up in backup exec as "X:\Backups\Servername" instead of "\NASHOSTNAME\Backups\Servername"

Keep in mind that the location for your backups must have to\he appropriate permissions to allow the username you use on backup exec's settings to write to the location (Wow, that sounded convoluted).

I hope this helps!

Thanks for the reply! I'd like to make some benches soon and will probably refer to your post for ideas.

Looks great!

What would you estimate the total cost to have been for this?

complexery · 23 days

Looks good. Do you have any drawings or measurements? Also approximate cost?

Are you sure he wasn't just voicing what he felt the results should be as opposed to what the results definitely were? It's obnoxious either way, but some of your text made it sound like he knew the results before the live results.

Are these not considered good heaters?

Do you have any suggestions?

it gives you the option of translating right on the page.

Yes, this must be a chrome thing because I can't find this option anywhere on the page in firefox.

I think you linked to the front page of Yahoo.jp

I just tried it again and it seems to work fine for me. I'd like to see if the link works properly for other users in firefox.

everyone in the building can access the entire network drive except for a few folders

Just so you know, I found the acl setup to be quirky if you're accessing the shares using AD users. If you're managing all the user's directly from the NAS, it should be fairly straightforward.

As far as I have found, you can not give the system account access to the NAS. This may affect you if you run any scripts on startup that copy/append data on the NAS.

Thank you

Glad to help. If you run into any particular problems, message me and I'll do my best to help. I have a DS409+ at home along with 4 RS2211RP+ at work that I'm trying to figure out.

Since nobody has addressed your post, I'll give it a shot. If you have any particular questions, ask and I'll do my best to answer.

In my experience users accessing the NAS shares must type their username and password unless their local login is the same as on the NAS.
If you're getting rid of AD, you'll have no user management or GPOs. The NAS has a directory server, but since it is using LDAP, I'm not aware of any way to use GPOs. Depending on your environment, this may be an issue.
Do you have any idea of which model you are looking to get? A 10 bay NAS is about $3000 dollars with no drives. Using 10 2TB drives in a RAID 5 with a spare, you'll end up with 14.29TB
Also, make sure your NAS has the appropriate amount of NICs. With two NICs, you can enable link aggregation which may be helpful depending on your environment.

We have about 50 users but only about 5-10 access the file server at any one time.

Even on a cheapo synology like the ds409+, you shouldn't have a problem with this.

What road blocks or problems might I run into by getting rid of our server/domain controller?

Above, I tried to answer this with the things I could think of. My main concerns would be with the lack of GPOs. In most environments, not being able to use GPOs would be a problem.

Let me know if this helps and if you have any particular questions/comments.

I was thinking this as well. Great knock out, but really horrible timing to switch it up. What the hell did they think was about to happen?

Just added a few live plants a couple weeks ago.

As as far as fish go...

Glo-lite tetras - 3
Neon tetras - 2
Black Skirt Tetra - 1
White Molly - 1
Dalmatian Molly - 1
Chinese Algae Eater - 1
Zebra Danio - 3
Mickey Mouse Platy - 3
Balloon Belly Molly - 1
Black Jumbo Neon Tetra - 2
Tiger Platy (Mickey Mouse) - 1
Red Platy - 1
White Mickey Mouse Platy - 1

In most of the instances where there is a low number of fish and you'd expect there to be more, it is a direct result of a recent bout of ick. :-(

I know the heaters are working because this morning it was 55 in the house and 70 in the tank. I haven't touched them though. I couldn't imagine that two different brand heaters that are both less than 3 months old would be bad. I appreciate your help with the problem regardless.

FredMcBob · 3 months

Both heaters are on the majority of the time. They both have indicator lights. I'm pretty sure I haven't seen one of the indicator lights turn off in about a month.

Harry and the Hendersons is a movie from the 80's. Antbutter is referring to the main character, Harry as the reason that should be his nickname.

Your comment has shown me how biased I am. Every time Cruz fights, I get mad because he "won't engage, he's point fighting" but when Condit fought, I felt like he was fighting smart.

The_Demolition_Man · 3 months

Reading your comment just reminded me of something, and maybe you'll agree. In this video, Condit says "I'm going to use my technical abilities to destroy him." I feel like he did exactly what he promised to do. It's the UFC marketing machine that lied, not Condit.

I really thought Condit's striking looked great rounds 3-5. Nick's just a tough fight for anyone. Condit definitely took some unnecessary risks through the fight with some of his striking.
