Hi All,

How can i verify/Probe the filer in Netbackup 7.0. I tried for set_ndmp_attr but the command is not found in NBU 7.0.

Could someone pls let me know which command has replaced this or how can i probe ??

i guess../usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpautoconf -probe <filer>

but i'm not pretty sure about the above command ?

Can someone pls confirm the same ??

-Thanks

Have a look at this doc:

NDMP Administrator's Guide  http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH127075

Credentials can be set/checked via the GUI:

On the NetBackup server, from the Administration Console: under Media and Device Management > Credentials, click NDMP Hosts.

Also: NetBackupTM for NDMP: NAS Appliance Information 
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH31885 (there's a chapter for NetApp) .Examples from this manual:

tpconfig -add -nh netapp_host -user_id root -password password
tpconfig -add -robot 8 -robtype tld -robpath mc0 -nh netapp_host -bus 0 -target 0 -lun 0
tpautoconf -verify netapp_host

From the commands guide:

<volmgr_dir_path>tpautoconf -get_gdbhost
<volmgr_dir_path>tpautoconf -set_gdbhost host_name
<volmgr_dir_path>tpautoconf -verify ndmp_host_name
<volmgr_dir_path>tpautoconf -probe ndmp_host_name
<volmgr_dir_path>tpautoconf -report_disc
<volmgr_dir_path>tpautoconf -replace_drive drive_name -path drive_path
<volmgr_dir_path>tpautoconf -replace_robot robot_number -path
robot_path
On UNIX and Linux systems, <volmgr_dir_path> is /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/
On Windows systems, <volmgr_dir_path> is <install_path>\Volmgr\bin\

where:

-probe ndmp_host_name
Lists all devices that are attached to the NDMP host.

-verify ndmp_host_name
Verifies the server name of the NDMP host

***EDIT***

This was also the same for 6.5 but I still use set_ndmp_attr - not sure if the above is still capable of replacing all the options of the set_ndmp_attr command though?

Didn't have time to check it all thoroughly - been busy for a change! wink
