Well, the one of the most - IF not the most - important files is bp.conf located in /usr/openv/netbackup. This file [which can be found accross setup] tells how a machine is configured: Master, Media Manager, and/or Client. Please also note that a machine can be configured as follows:
Master-MM-Client-in-one
MM-Client-in-one
Client
And here is a sample of a basic entry:
$ more /usr/open/netbackup/bp.conf
SERVER=[name of Master]
SERVER=[name of Media Manager]
...[list of other servers]
EMMSERVER=[name of EMM; mostly Master - depending on setup]
CLIENT_NAME=[name of Client; depending on the role as defined above]
... [additional options follows]
Another config file you might want to check-up is /usr/openv/volmgr/vm.conf which contains:
MM_SERVER_NAME=[name of MM]
In addition to these files, we are also considering native UNIX files and ensure that they're properly configured to allow NBU to run:
/etc/services - defines service names and corresponding ports
/etc/inetd.conf
/dev - device files directory which will identify the robots and tapes
Forgive me, I've been busy with specifics and gravely forgot the parent of it all. Almost all of the files: config and commands are located in /usr/openv for Unices or [install directory]\VERITAS for Windows.
So what we're talking here are:
../netbackup - contains NBU, VolMgr binaries, NBU DB
../db/data - EMM & NB databases
../netbackup/db - NBU DB of class, schedules, images, etc.
../netbackup/logs - log files
Here are the daemons, in addition to what was listed before:
tldd - started with ltid robotic daemon one on each MM server
tldcd - started with ltid; talks to the robot
bpbrm - backup and restore manager
bptm - tape manager
bpdm - disk manager
avrd - bar code reader
Next, we'll go to basic troubleshooting of common issues encountered.
Hallo
ReplyDeletethe path to bp.conf must contain openv not only open.
Correct! Thanks for this. It's a typo but appreciate it.
