Hello Rich,

 

Its not possible to run the same exact instance of SmartDisk on two systems, like copy all files from A machine to B machine. Internal datastructures in SmartDisk are unique to the machine.

 

The best option for what you want to do is SmartDisk replication function. This is controled by NetVault Backup. It is basically an intelligent DataCopy job from SmarDisk A machine to SmartDisk B machine. It understands data is deduplicated smartdisk, so only copies the unique chunks. Its very fast. See section 5.5.7, pg 117. "Use Optimised Replication between Devices that Support this Feature"

Even better is DR4100. THese things are great.
