Hi All,
I have 1 master & 3 media redhat linux servers, they are running on netbackup 7.7.2 . , 3 media servers connect to Data Domain Storage server. I have new media server (7.7.2), I installed DD plug in on that new media server. I am not able to add that media server to existence Data Domain Storage Server (dd890_1).
My question is
Do I need add credential on new media server with command below:
tpconfig -add -storage_server dd890_1 -stype DataDomain -sts_user_id ddbadmin -password xxxx
What step do I need to add new media server to existence Data Domain Storage server dd890_1 ?
Thank you very much for your help.

Did you remember to stop/start nbrmms (NetBackup Remote Manager and Monitor Service) on the media server?
Did you run 'bpstsinfo -pi -stype DataDomain' to confirm that the plugin is loaded?

What exactly is happening (or not happening) here?
You can run 'tpconfig -add -storage_server ...... ' on the media server or on the master server - just add -media_server <name> to the command.
PS:
Did you go through the steps to add the new media server as a 'regular' media server on the master server?
Have you added correct license keys on the media server?

Did you remember to stop/start nbrmms (NetBackup Remote Manager and Monitor Service) on the media server? Do I need to stop/restart it before I run tpconfig -add -storage_server ...... ' on the media server ? Because I already stop/restart netbackup services.
