Hi,
I installed a NetBackup 7.5 environment with a MSDP media server.
I'm not sure the dedup engine credential. How can I check the password before I give this environment to production? Is there any command which ask me this password? Or is there any command which is similar than ShowDedupPassword command in NetBackup appliance?
Thanks

First off, you can verify the username that was used when configuring MSDP by using the tpconfig tool. Log onto the media server with MSDP configured, open a terminal and run these commands:
$ /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpconfig -dsh -stype PureDisk ========================================================================= Media Server: myhost Storage Server: myhost <PureDisk> User Id: msdpuser <PureDisk> =========================================================================
$ /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpconfig -update -storage_server myhost -stype PureDisk -sts_user_id msdpuser Enter the OpenStorage host's password for User Id msdpuser: Please re-enter the OpenStorage host's password to confirm it: Invalid credentials for type PureDisk server pete.min.veritas.com authorization failure Authorization failed for OpenStorage server pete.min.veritas.com $
$ /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpconfig -update -storage_server myhost -stype PureDisk -sts_user_id msdpuser Enter the OpenStorage host's password for User Id msdpuser: Please re-enter the OpenStorage host's password to confirm it: $

These should have been provided during the setup of the storage server when it was first configured - so who ever did that will have the password - you need to ask them.
I dont believe there is a way to show the crednetials in MSDP but to change it you need to log a call with Support so it looks like there is a way - worth giving them a call

If you have MSDP configured on netbackup appliance, you can check the dedup credentials :-
Login to the appliance go to - Appliance> ShowDedupPassword
