HI All,
I want to create netbbackup master server name as " backup_dr " . I would like to know whether nbu accepts " _ " in the name.
Regards

This section assumes familiarity with UNIX and Linux operating systems, file system navigation techniques, basic daemon configuration, daemon restart procedures, and the use of text editors.
As shown earlier, Active Directory records contain underscores. There is a prohibition on the use of underscore in hostnames (RFC 952, and 1123) and mail domains (RFC 821), but the use of underscores is not prohibited in domain names. Because underscores are allowed in domain namesand due to the number and complexity of the records required by Active DirectoryMicrosoft opted to use underscores in the domain name portion of the records to reduce the possibility of Active Directory data conflicting with existing DNS data.
By default, BIND 8 does not consider any record containing an underscore to be valid. BIND 8.x uses the check-names directive to restrict the character set of domain names in master files and/or DNS responses received from the network. Therefore, you must disable the check-names option to allow BIND 8.x to support Active Directory.
BIND 9
BIND 9x does not restrict the character set of domain names and does not implement the check-names option.
