I have two question.

2.How to link NetBackup catalog and MSDP mini-catalog info.

The NetBackup catalog holds the information for all backups. The deduplication mini-catalog holds backup information related to the images that are stored on MSDP. When data is sent to MSDP, entries in the MSDP catalog are created to hold information about that data. This data is different than the informaiton stored in the NetBackup catalog, though.
Actually, it's the "spad" service that manages the mini-catalog within MSDP, not the PostgreSQL database service.
