Hi there,

I have an interesting project at the moment where a customer has a old gen 2 and 3 Avamar cluster that is aging and needs replacing. There isn't a huge amount of cash on the table so I'm thinking about putting a Data Domain in place and redirecting backups to it them allowing the old backups to expire.

However they're using old Avamar running 6.x I don't believe it supports backup to Data Domain and the preference would be to upgrade all the software to take advantage of the source based deduplication like they have at the moment.

So the question is there a way to keep the old grid going while sending the backups to Data Domain?

Thanks in advance,

Ed
