    Shared Storage option (SSO)

    NDMP for SSO is supported in NBU 6. For me, having multiple NDMP hosts, I have a specific set of devices that they share only. I do not have them sharing the devices utilized by my traditional media servers, which consist of two STU groups, 3 STUs each. (My Master is the traffic cop, it...

    NDMP using simultaneous tape drives?

    zone 1 datamover to one drive, the other datamover to the other drive. Config NBU accordingly.

    netbackup change servers

    It is the Veritas supported way, yes. I have dragged catalog files over the wire in the past with success.

    Drive is down and cannot be upped !!

    Sounds like a spurious lock file somewhere. Since it's only one drive why not delete it from the config, recycle services, add drive back....just a thought

    netbackup change servers

    You cannot bprecover your 5.1 catalogs to a fresh install on NBU6.0. Build out your new 5.1 - bprecover it - upgrade in place to NBU 6.0

    Vault - Need tapes put in correct group when manually taken out

    By taking the tapes out manually you have managed to defeat the integrity of the media in the library (robotic inventory) and defeat the Netbackup auditing of the tapes. Do you reinventory the robot after manually removing the cartridges? If you do, then netbackup will at least know they no...

    reason why SAT backups not taking place

    I think comtech is on the right track, except it is at the individual schedule level. Here's what we use to keep things sorted, in just about every possible schedule you can think of runs in this enviro. Daily = 18hr freq weekly = 5 day frq Monthly = 26 day freq ...you can see where this is...

    import catalaogs of a previous version?

    From 3.x to 4.x, and from 4.x to 5.x. We did just do a fresh install of NBU on new hardware and then bprecover the previous catalog without any problem, it is not supported by Veritas to do it this way. Our reasoning for upgrading in that manner was to keep the backout quick and clean, just...

    NetBackup Tape Listing Report

    Yes, there are numerous reports you can select to have printed from the vault process, and not just under NBU 6.0, earlier versions of vault had the capability as well. Reports for Media Going Off-Site ? Reports for Media Coming On-Site ? Inventory Reports ? Container Inventory Report ...

    Advice on upgrade to 6.0

    xxx01, Yes. On our test boxes, I did a fresh install of 6.0, SFW_HA 4.2 and successfully recovered our 5.0 MP4 catalog data. For those using VCS, the NBU 6.0 agent for VCS actually works.

    A manager – system error occurred (174)

    Job56 is a catalog backup. Catalog backups and regular media backups cannot reside on the same tape. You may wish to revisit how you use your volume pools. Catalog backup tapes must reside in the "NetBackup" pool. If the tape was a dbbackup tape, you would get a like error from the regular...
