Arkeia Network Backup Version 9.0 Quick Start Guide - English
From Arkeia Documentation
Introduction to Network Backup Version 9.0
Arkeia Network Backup version 9.0 delivers features to shorten backup-windows, and to reduce storage and networking costs for protecting your data.
This major release employs patented Progressive Deduplication, Source and Target Side Data Deduplication, 256 AES Encryption and Two Phase Backups among other features.
Menu and Terminology Changes
The Arkeia Web User Interface and menu items and some terminology has changed in version 9.0.
The main changes are:
Data Deduplication
Progressive Deduplication is an improvement over first-generation deduplication technologies like fixed-block or variable-block deduplication. “Progressive Deduplication” is named for the second of the two underlying technologies used. First, a sliding-window is used to scan all possible blocks of a given size in a file, advancing one byte at a time. Second, progressive-matching uses a light-weight algorithm to identify those blocks that are probable matches to known blocks, followed by a heavy-weight algorithm which scrutinizes probable matches with a hashing algorithm to confirm the match.
Arkeia’s progressive-matching is ideal for source-side deployment, but administrators can specify that certain backups be deduplicated at the target (the media server) or not at all. For backups, source-side deduplication is preferable because the deduplication compresses data before it travels over the network, shortening backup windows.
Because the size of the deduplication block is set by the sliding window, and because this window can be adjusted, Arkeia uses different block sizes for files of different types. A text file, a database file, a virtual machine image, and an application file will be deduplicated with blocks of different sizes.
Arkeia’s deduplication is “in-line”, eliminating the overhead of moving the data more than once. In-line deduplication is a natural complement to source-side deduplication because the data are compressed before they leave the source computer to travel over the network.

AES 256 Encryption
Client-side support of AES-256 encryption improves data privacy both while stored and while in transit over the network.
Deduplication is completed before data is encrypted
Two Phase Backup
Two-phase backups are ideal for environments with large numbers of small files, where the time to move the files is much less than the time required to update the catalog. The advantage of this approach is that the backup window can be reduced dramatically, being limited by the time to move the files over the network. However, it is not possible to restore files from the catalog until the index update is complete. The files are safe, but temporarily inaccessible.
- Please refer to the How To: Enable Two Phase Backups Guide for more information on how to implement this feature.
Pre-Installation Configuration
CPU and Memory
Data Dedupe Environments
Unlike a standard backup, Data Deduplication requires more memory and central processing power to obtain the best performance possible.
Arkeia recommends the following minimum hardware specifications for a data deduplication operations.
- (64 Bit) Linux Operating System
- 4 (64 bit) CPU Cores
- 16 GB of Available Memory
Source Side Dedupe clients require a minimum of 3 GB of memory for dedupe operations.
Clients with less memory must have their dedupe.prf file adjusted for the lower amount of memory.
Please refer to the How To: Data Dedupe With Small CPU And Memory Guide for more details how you can modify the dedupe engine for smaller CPU and Memory environments.
Non Data Dedupe Environments
The minimum server requirements are 512 MB Memory and a 1.0 GHz processor for non data deduplication environments
Although Arkeia can be hosted on the minimum hardware environment, the best performance will be obtained by deploying a backup server based on your total backup data size. The following descriptions are "suggested" comparable configurations for selective class backup environments that should provide the best performance.
The information below should be used as a basic guideline for backup server hardware.
Each backup environment is different. The type, structure, retention policy and overall backup policy should dictate the level of hardware required for your production environment. Your backup deployment may require more or less CPU, Memory and Disk Space so plan accordingly.
File Locking
"File Locking" is a mechanism that restricts access to a computer file by allowing only one user or process access at any specific time.
The UBP (unique block pool) is locked while the dedupe engine is running, which occurs during backups, replications and restore operations.
Arkeia uses the OS level file locking call which works only on block devices such as local or iSCSI mounts.
NFS (Networked File System) is currently not supported and should not be used to host the Block Pools.
IPC Parameters
Message Queues
Increase the IPC parameters of the Linux kernel as superuser.
su - # on traditional Linux distributions or sudo -s # on Debian/Ubuntu like distributions
vi /etc/sysctl.conf # Sets maximum number of message queues # to 200 (by default it is 16) kernel.msgmni = 200 # Sets maximum size of message queue to 65536 # (by default the size of the message queue is 16348 since the kernel 2.2.14) kernel.msgmnb = 65536
Activate the changes using the following commands.
/sbin/sysctl -p /usr/bin/ipcs -l
Shared Memory
The SHMMAX parameter is used to define the maximum size (in bytes) for a shared memory segment.
If SHMMAX is set incorrectly (too low), the backup and data dedupe process will fail with the message "cannot allocate memory".
You can determine the value of SHMMAX by performing the following command:
cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax 33554432
As you can see from the output above, the default value for SHMMAX is 32MB on some distribution.
This is often too small to perform data deduplication backups.
Arkeia suggest to set shmmax to 4 GB mimimum for your initial backup testing.
If 4 GB is not sufficient for your environment, then increase the value as needed for best performance.
Temporary Setting
Use the "echo" command to temporarily increase the value of shmmax.
The setting will be replaced by the default if the system is rebooted or powered off/on.
echo 4294967295 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
Permanent Setting
Adding the value to the sysctl.conf file will permanently alter the setting.
vi /etc/sysctl.conf
# Controls the maximum shared segment size, in bytes kernel.shmmax = 4294967295
Activate the changes using the following commands.
/sbin/sysctl -p /usr/bin/ipcs -l
Tape Device Validation
Kernel SCSI Modules
st and sg
Check dmesg to determine if "scsi tape (st)" and "generic scsi" (sg type 8) modules are loaded and associated to your tape backup hardware.
Tape Drive(s) sg (generic scsi) path cannot be used to access the tape drive for backup operations. Arkeia must use the st (scsi tape) path. dmesg | grep tape st 6:0:2:0: Attached scsi tape st0 st 6:0:3:0: Attached scsi tape st1
Tape Library type 8 devices are library robotics and control arms. dmesg | grep "type 8" sg 6:0:1:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 8
udev Persistent Device Paths
Persistent device paths can also be used within the Arkeia environment when multiple tape drives and or libraries are used.
The "nst" (none rewind device) paths are not supported.
ls -la /dev/tape/by-id/* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Mar 1 11:05 /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-DELL_TL4000_000002305301 -> ../../sg1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Feb 28 07:02 /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09e00012378f-nst -> ../../nst0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Feb 28 07:02 /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09e00012378f-st -> ../../st0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Feb 28 07:02 /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09e00012378e-nst -> ../../nst1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Feb 28 07:02 /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09e00012378e-st -> ../../st1
- Read the How To: udev Persistent Device Paths KB article, if you do not have persistent device paths.
Tape Drive Validation
Use the standard Linux "mt" and "tar" commands to validate the tape drive before usage.
Insert a Tape into the drive.
Issue the following "mt" command to verify the devices is online:
mt -f /dev/st0 status or mt -f /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09e00012378f-st status
Issue the following "tar -cvf" command to write to the media:
tar -cvf /dev/st0 /etc or tar -cvf /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09e00012378f-st /etc
Issue the following "tar -tvf" command to read from the media:
tar -tvf /dev/st0 or tar -tvf /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09e00012378f-st
Library Validation
Ensure the library is in Random or SCSI Mode and not Sequential Mode at the library control screen.
Use the standard "mtx" command to validate the library before usage.
/usr/sbin/mtx -f /dev/sg1 status /usr/sbin/mtx -f /dev/sg1 inventory or /usr/sbin/mtx -f /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-DELL_TL4000_000002305301 status /usr/sbin/mtx -f /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-DELL_TL4000_000002305301 inventory
Host Name Verification
Verify the hostname on the backup server.
/bin/hostname backups.us.arkeia.com
Ensure the /etc/hosts file is set to the proper syntax with the hostname of the backup server as a separate entry and not on the same line as the localhost address.
The ipv4 address must be placed "ABOVE or BEFORE" the ipv6 address.
vi /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.5.211 backups.us.arkeia.com backups
Firewall and SE Linux
If your system does not have "iptables" (Firewall) or "setenforce" (SELinux) installed, the following commands will result in the message (No Such File or Directory) being returned by the system.
Disable the Linux Firewall before installing Arkeia.
/etc/init.d/iptables stop
Set SELinux to passive mode before installing Arkeia.
/usr/sbin/setenforce 0

Software Validation (Null Media Backup)
Backups to Null Devices are only used for testing and generating benchmarks as the data is written to the Linux path of /dev/null and are not restorable.
Backups to Null do not update the Arkeia Index by default.
Create a Savepack
A Savepack is a collection of the clients and or directory paths of data to be backed up.
Set the Compression/Deduplication Type to "Deduplication at the target".
IMPORTANT DEDUPLICATION NOTE:
The Savepack Parameter "Compression/Deduplication Type" determines local compression, data dedupe at the source or the target.
Setting "Deduplication at the target" will dedupe data when written to a Data Deduplication enabled Disk Storage.
Data Deduplication will not occur when backing up to Null Media or a non Dedupe enabled Disk Storage, however the backup will be done using Arkeia Client Side Compression.
- Refer to the English Documentation Savepack Guide for more details.
