Prerequisites for Verification
Ensure all prerequisites for application backup verification:
Verification of SQL Server and Oracle may require additional node configuration settings. See Editing a Node in the Reference Guide.
For a DPX Enterprise that contains multiple instances of SQL, it is recommended that the default verification node remain selected. This prevents compatibility issues by verifying the backups against their original instances.
The verification node and the source node must be running the same operating systems.
For Oracle, the requirements of the verification node are the same as the requirements for an Oracle cloning target node. For these requirements, see Chapter 23: Oracle Databases in the User’s Guide.
For Oracle, when a whole database is not backed up but only some tablespaces are selected, verification cannot be used, because the Catalogic DPX Verification clones the entire database.
For SQL Server and Exchange, the verification node can be the source node, but it is not recommended.
Note. To verify a Windows Server 2012 deduplicated NTFS volume, select a verification node running Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2012 R2. To verify a Windows Server 2012 R2 deduplicated NTFS volume, select a verification node running Windows Server 2012 R2. See Catalogic DPX Block Data Protection.
For Exchange 2010/2013, see Setting Verification Options for Exchange 2010/2013.
