Disk space and RAM requirements of Data Protector UNIX clients
The following table shows the minimum disk space and RAM requirements for the various Data Protector clients: RAM (MB) 256 b 64 (recommended 128) 64 (recommended 128) 64 (recommended 128) Disk Space (MB) 150 c 10 20 15
Client System User Interface a Disk Agent Media Agent Integration Modules
a. The documentation (pdf files, 60MB) is included. b. The memory requirements for the GUI system vary significantly with the number of elements that need to be displayed at a time. This consideration applies to the worst case actual display which you want to view (like expanding a single directory). You do not need to consider the total of directories and file names on a client, unless you want to expand all directories while viewing. It has been shown that 2 MB memory are required per 1000 elements (directories or file names) to display plus a base need for about 50 MB. So the 256 MB of RAM are good to display about 100 000 file names. However, if you need to browse 400 000 different file names in a single directory (before restore) then you should have a GUI system with >850 MB. c. With regard to the disk space, keep in mind, the page file alone should be able to grow to about 3 times the physical memory.
The figures indicate requirements from the agent only. For example the "disk space" figure does not include space allocation for the OS, page file or other applications. The Data Protector A.05.10 HP-UX and Solaris GUI are based on Windows emulation software and therefore require higher graphical processing power. It is recommended to use midrange (or higher) workstation system with considerable graphics power. Usage over dial-up line is not feasible. HP-UX Systems When installing or upgrading remotely, the available disk space in the folder /tmp should be at least the size of the biggest package being installed (HSLco40379). When installing a Media Agent, make sure that the following entry is in the file /etc/system: set semsys:seminfo semmni=100. When installing or upgrading remotely, the available disk space in folders /tmp and /var/tmp should be at least the size of the biggest package being installed (HSLco40379). The Solaris installation CD-ROM is in the pkg stream format, which is not recognized by the standard tar utility. That is why the HP-UX, and not the Solaris installation CD-ROM must be used for the local installation/upgrade of Solaris clients.

It is strongly recommended to order one single drive license for each existing backup drive. Use means for any purposes: backup AND restore AND media copy (source AND target). Drive licenses must not be shared between multiple Cells. This LTU can be used for Windows, NetWare, and Linux. However, in case the drive is not used in a SAN, it is less expensive to use B6963AA. Drives attached to HP MPE systems, OpenVMS systems, and NAS (Network Attached Storage) file servers, for example HP StorageWorks NAS, Network Appliance Filers and EMC Celerra File Servers require this license. A SAN means a Storage Area Network, which enables multiple systems to share storage resources. A Fiber Channel point-to-point connection is not considered as a SAN. This license is only required in case of storage resource sharing via a SAN.
B6963AA
For Windows, NetWare, Linux (Intel®) Includes the license-to-use (ltu) for one additional used backup drive directly attached to a Windows, NetWare, or Linux (Intel) system. A backup drive can be a tape drive, a logical drive on disk (backup to disk using a file device), or Magneto Optical.

Direct Backup Using NDMP Includes the license-to-use to backup up to 1 TB of 1 NDMP Server. Required once per terabyte (TB) of used disk space for each filer being backed up via NDMP (e.g. HP StorageWorks NAS, Network Appliance Filers or EMC Celerra File Servers). Used disk space capacity is the total capacity of all volumes of the filer being backed up via NDMP. This amount represents the total usable capacity of these volumes, matching with their configured LDEV sizes. Zero Downtime Backup (ZDB) extension for HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP for HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array, Virtual Array for EMC Symmetrix Includes the license-to-use for one terabyte (TB) of used disk space capacity of the specified disk array protected by zero downtime backup (ZDB), utilizing HP Business Copy XP/EVA/VA and/or HP Continuous Access XP, or EMC TimeFinder and/or EMC SRDF. Used disk space capacity is the total capacity of all primary volumes on the disk array that are used for Zero Downtime Backup or Instant Recovery(i.e. Primary means the original production data volumes). This amount represents the total true usable capacity of these volumes, corresponding with their configured LDEV sizes. Data Protector does not require licenses for the capacity consumed by the secondary volumes, mirrors, snapshots that are used for protection.

Used capacity differs from raw capacity in that RAID overhead is excluded. This means the RAID configuration does not need to be considered. Requires the Data Protector on-line backup LTU (B6955BA, B6965BA). Data Protector 5.0 and Omniback had the on-line backup included. Customers with existing ZDB installations can continue to use them without the on-line backup extension for each application server. Further extensions require the on-line backup extension. Data Protector 5.1 supports the Windows Server 2003 file system snapshot feature VSS (Volume Shadow copy Service) at no extra charge. However, backup via a hardware provider requires this ZDB extension. For example, file system snapshot, MS Exchange Server, MS SQL Server backup via a HP disk array provider.
Instant Recovery Extension for HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP for HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array
B7026CA B7028AA
Includes the license-to-use (ltu) for one terabyte (TB) of used disk space capacity, required for the Instant Recovery of the specified disk array utilizing Instant Recovery. Data Protector "Instant Recovery" permits recovery of terabytes of data from one or multiple recovery disks in minutes; rather than recovery from tape, which could take hours. Used disk space capacity is the total capacity of all primary volumes on the disk array that are used for Zero Downtime Backup or Instant Recovery (i.e. Primary means the original production data volumes). This amount represents the total true usable capacity of these volumes corresponding with their configured LDEV sizes. Data Protector does not require licenses for the capacity consumed by the secondary volumes, mirrors, snapshots that are used for protection.
