NetworkWise Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Is it possible for nakivo to backup to a rdx appliance like RDX® QuikStation™ 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Official Moderator Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 It will work in case of using as logical storage without cartridge rotation or for each cartridge separately. It was not tested as Emulated Tape library. Please describe your use case in details for detailed analysis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NetworkWise Posted July 10, 2020 Author Share Posted July 10, 2020 @Official Moderator The use case for this would be to archive data on to the cartridges for long term storage and to follow the 3-2-1 backup rule https://www.nakivo.com/blog/3-2-1-backup-rule-efficient-data-protection-strategy/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The RDX is a network device, you see the web interface here https://youtu.be/0Bvzh_RsBPM?t=1236. It looks like each drive or volume can be a iscsi target that could be connected to the nakivo server and then a backup repository could be created on those iscsi drive targets right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Official Moderator Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Yes, in this case it is possible to create a repository on this device (iSCSI target is mounted to the transporter machine on the OS level and the repository is created as a local folder).
