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 Advance
netbackup unable to resolve hostname, no hostname alias added to pem name manager.
Hi, I see the below error on my problems report: netbackup unable to resolve hostname <hostname>, no hostname alias added to pem name manager. Now there's about 16 of these servers and they have all been decommissioned and they are not associated with any policy and they are not under client's host properties on the GUI. Upon searching under the /usr/openv/netbackup/db/client directory, all 16 of these client folders are still in there. Is it OK to just remove/delete these client folders on this directory? Or is there another way of getting rid of these error? RegardsZoning Aix to Netbackup 5230
Hi guys, I just create a zone between AIX (LPAR), 5230 appliance and a storage like this As you can the AIX server has two FC adapter each one belongs to a zone,but sometimes I lose visibility from netbackup so I have to go to the client and run cfgmgr command or even restart clients services. Then on AIX server I run some commands like this root@PRECBPHCDB]:/usr/openv/netbackup/bin>lsdev -Cc tape The output Im getting is: rmt0 Available 42-T1-01 Other FC SCSI Tape Drive rmt1 Available 44-T1-01 Other FC SCSI Tape Drive rmt2 Available 44-T1-01 Other FC SCSI Tape Drive [root@PRECBPHCDB]:/usr/openv/netbackup/bin>tail It is normal to get "Other FC SCSI Tape drive". Should I install a Veritas driver o something like that?
How to zone Vmware Datastore LUN to Backup Host
Dear Experts Master Server : Windows Media Server ( acting as appliance 5230 as well) : Linux Storage : Hitachi HUS Array Vmware backup failing with status 23 ( policy set to use SAN transport mode). I have gone through few good articles , but I can't find how to zone Vmware datastore LUN to Backup host /Appliance. In the environment only backups working which are on datastore_01, but other datastores like 02 - 05 won't work , failed with status 23. When I go on CLISH , Manage > FibreChannel > Show , I only see Device path and ID for datastore_01 only, so that tells me Datastore 02 - 05 must added here somehow, but how and from where , that is my question. In one of the article I read, below statement " Not just zoning the volumes to the appliance you need to add mapping for the volumes so that the actual datastore volumes are seen by the appliance " But how to do , what command, and from where need to do ? Please advise solution....Replication from second copy
