31 Setting Up the Dell™ DR Series System on Symantec NetBackup to Use Backup Acceleration | May 2014
5 Duplicate the backup data to the OST replication target container
Note: This procedure is the same for NetBackup (NBU) on a Windows or Linux host.
1. Create an OST container on the target DR Series system.
2. Repeat steps 1-16 in Section 2, or follow Section 3 for adding the container as a storage unit onto NetBackup
(NBU). Verify that the storage unit was created successfully.
3. Look for the job that backs up to the source OST container with backup acceleration. Get the backup ID of the
backup job from the job’s Detailed Status.
