SoRepo-Extents -Reallocate

Post by BackupTest90 »

Hello,
we have two physical proxys and each have one extents. We set the "data locality" as default policy. For a few days, we had a issue with our storagespace and veeam created the backup from the .vibs that originally belongs to ProxyA on ProxyB.
Is it possible to reallocate the .vibs from ProxyB to ProxyA, or how can I do this that we follow our data locality policy?

Regards,

Hello,
is there a reason to not just wait until retention is applied and the "issue" resolves itself over time? :-)

Best regards,
Hannes

But overall, yes, you can move the required files manually and rescan the SOBR afterwards to restore the policy.

Good question, but we have a lot of VMs, that have restorepoints >30 and I have scare that we get this problem not under control. Additionally our GFS-Tape Job are very slow, and when they create this virtual full for the GFS, then the job "must look" in two extens.
Okay, that means, manually copy from Exten1 to Extent2 and rescan the repo? Than is everythin fine?

Yes, copy the misplaced VIB into the corresponding job folder on another extent and rescan.
