Editing Host file on Netbackup 5520 appliance
I could do with some help on what options are available to add entries to the host file on the 5520 appliance. I am familiar with using the CLISH and navigating to >>Network from the main menu and the using the following command: hosts add 10.0.0.1 nbutest.nbappliance.lab nbutest host show - will provide an output of information in the file. Is there anyway to access the the host file by going through Support>>Maintenance(Enter Password)>>Elevate I believe you can drop in to the normal Linux directory structure and navigate to \usr\openv\netbackup... But where is the host file located and what is is called since most Linux articles seem to refer to \etc\hosts I have tried to use vi and view the hosts & hosts.conf files located in the \usr\openv\netbackup\bin directories, but they do not seem to list the same info as what I see when running hosts show through CLISH. Any assistance would be appreciated with the above. Thanks In Advance9.5KViews0likes5Commentsnbcheck returned exit status 255

I have a Windows master server(10.0.0.1) and created a media server on linux (centos 8).while adding the media server I followed steps from Veritas guide and posts available here. my issue is that the name of the newly created media server is not showing in console , under media servers.but if I do "configure Media Server" under actions, the new media server properties is showing fine. I have confirmed below points: -the name of linux media server is available in master servers properties (shortname and FQDN) both under additinal servers and media servers) -name of the linux media server is availble in registry in the registry key Server -lin linux media server, the bp.conf seems fine. I have faced below issues: 1-from linux server, running "nbemmcmd -getemmserver" gives me "a web login is required,.Run the 'bpnbat -login -loginType command to login" 2-from master server, running nbemmcmd -listhosts (and with -verbos) it only representing the master server name. 3-trying to add the linux media server in master server via nbemmcmd , gives an error that the hostname already exist. I would appreciate if anyone can help me out on this issue.3.1KViews0likes13CommentsAPI call for nbstlutil
I am having problems with replications on multiple of our master servers. I manually execute "nbstlutil report" command to see if there are any incomplete SLP copies on backlog. Is there an API that will show the same kind of data for SLPs? I would like to automate the report. I am looking for the same info that nbstlutil report gives: SLP Name: (state), Number of copies, Size842Views1like3CommentsChanging tmpdir on Linux for v10.5
I've tried adding TMPDIR=/var/tmp/netbackup in /etc/init.d/netbackup and adding TMPDIR and TEMPDIR into /usr/openv/var/global/nbdeployutilconfig.txt These do not change the TMPDIR I am looking at the fapolicyd rules and can see that tools like nbutil and nbhealthchecker create /tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2527638/nbhealthchecker or /tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-3947960/nbutil This par-726f6f74 seems consistent at the moment, but that may change with the next upgrade, I don't know. I'd like to create a future proofed set of policies by taking control of the TMPDIR, and then Veritas is free to do what they want under that. example entries fapolicyd[613787]: rule=103 dec=deny_log perm=open auid=-1 pid=2527638 exe=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2527638/nbhealthchecker : path=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2527638/inc/lib/check_nb_license_validity.pm ftype=text/x-perl trust=0 fapolicyd[613787]: rule=103 dec=deny_log perm=open auid=-1 pid=2527638 exe=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2527638/nbhealthchecker : path=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2527638/inc/lib/check_nb_norestrictions_file_existence.pm ftype=text/x-perl trust=0 fapolicyd[613787]: rule=40 dec=deny_log perm=open auid=-1 pid=2530921 exe=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2530921/nbhealthchecker : path=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2530921/43caee81.so ftype=application/x-sharedlib trust=0 fapolicyd[613787]: rule=40 dec=deny_log perm=open auid=-1 pid=2530921 exe=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2530921/nbhealthchecker : path=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2530921/026f509c.so ftype=application/x-sharedlib trust=0 fapolicyd[613787]: rule=40 dec=deny_log perm=open auid=-1 pid=2530921 exe=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2530921/nbhealthchecker : path=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2530921/556e1d16.so ftype=application/x-sharedlib trust=0 fapolicyd[613787]: rule=40 dec=deny_log perm=open auid=-1 pid=2530921 exe=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2530921/nbhealthchecker : path=/tmp/par-726f6f74/temp-2530921/2e36ee1c.so ftype=application/x-sharedlib trust=0 Thanks in advance Peter180Views0likes4CommentsError: Detected an attempt to install incorrect platform and/or operating system and version client binaries

Hi, In a NetBackup environment for PostgreSQL, I would like to know if it is possible to configure the inclusion of a continuous backup of the WAL archive files in addition to the usual PostgreSQL backup. In the documentation, it is specified that archiving must be enabled (archive_mode = on), but I haven't seen anywhere that it is specified that these are protected by the backup. Could you confirm if the WAL archives are being saved in the backup? Thanks and regards455Views0likes1CommentNetBackup for VMware: Exclude deleted blocks
The NetBackup 10.1 admin guide [1] says about the "Exclude deleted blocks" VMware optimizations: Reduces the size of the backup image by excluding any unused or deleted blocks within the file system on the virtual machine. This option supports the following file systems: Windows NTFS, and Linux ext2, ext3, and ext4. This option uses proprietary mapping technology to identify vacant sectors (allocated but empty) within the file system. Currently all our RHEL based virtual machines are using XFS filesystem, which is the default by Red Hat. Is this feature likely to come for XFS or is it worth to change our templates to use ext4 filesystem instead?
