Netbackup windows folder restore to different server
- 13 years ago
The master server console can always perform a redirected restore. If you wan't to grant a single server restore right from another server use the instruction listed below:
From the Netbackup Administrator for Windows volume 1 guide page 883:
The NetBackup administrator can permit a single client to restore the backups
that belong to other clients. Create a peername file on the NetBackup master
server where the policy that backed up the other client(s) resides.
Note: The information in this topic applies to restores made by using the command
line, not the Backup, Archive, and Restore client interface.
Create an altnames directory in the following location, then place the empty file
inside of the directory:Install_path\NetBackup\db\altnames\peername
Where peername is the client to possess restore privileges.
In this case, the requesting client (peername) can access the files that are backed
up by another client. The NetBackup client name setting on peername must match
the name of the other client.
