Netbackup 7.1.0.2 Vmware Backup
Hallo.
I have an firewalled enviroment where I wanna do a vmware backup, my question is....which ports do i need to have open.
My setup is as fowllows:
1 netbackup 7.1.0.2 master Linux
1 netbackup mediaserver 7.1.0.2 Windows 2008 SP2 (this is also the vmware backup host)
1 Virtual center server
1 ESX server
The two netbackup servers is on their own Vlan. and with a firewall between the netbackup Vlan and the Vmware Vlan.
The Virtual center and the ESX host is also on their own Vlan
I already have opened port 443 to virtual center from the vmware backup host, and port 902 to the ESX host, also from the vmware backup host. But still i get and "Error opening the snapshot disks using given transport mode: Status 23". we are using NBD transport mode and not SAN because your datastore is NFS mounted on the ESX......I have already tried TECH136311 (looking for locked files on the vmware backup host), but I am almost sure that it is at firewall issue because we are using the NBD transport mode and not the SAN one?
Anyone got some good ideas??
