Steps to configure a client
i want to configure a client at netbackup level. Please correct if i am wrong.
for Unix client
1)install the OS
2)we can ask network team to provide an IP and regestering the client in DNS s...
1, 2 & 3 - Agree with Nagalla
4)we need to add client entries in master server bp.conf ,
NO! NO! NO!
Only master's OWN hostname must be CLIENT_NAME in master's bp.conf.
Client is added to Master when you add a policy.etc/hosts file.
YES - If Client and server are NOT on DNS.
So,
- Check/confirm forward and reverse name lookup between client and master and media server(s),
- Install Client software,
- add SERVER entries for Master and Media server(s),
- If there is a firewall, ensure ports are open as per http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH136090. If Windows or Linux client, ensure OS firewall is turned off.
- Create policy for client.
