Firewall woes: Definitive TCP Port list for Netbackup
Hi, I keep running into problems connecting to clients/servers that have firewalls running. Does anyone have a COMPLETE portlist of TCP/UDP ports that should be open, so that I can do ALL possible Netbackup actions imaginable? We are using Netbackup 6.5.6 and 7.1 in a full Windows environment. I would like to put a generic firewall ruleset that is the same on all clients, so that Netbackup will never ever be bothered by the firewalls again... Hope someone has this information available! Thanks! FredSolved608Views0likes3Comments

Doubts on VxVM,VCS Upgrade & root disk encapsulation
Hi All, I have the below queries please 1) In order to stop VxVM to load at system boot time, we need to modify /etc/system file. What entries are to be commented out ? Is it only rootdev:/pseudo/vxio@0:0 set vxio:vol_rootdev_is_volume=1 (OR) also below entries are to be commented out ? forceload: drv/vxdmp forceload: drv/vxio forceload: drv/vxspec 2) My current version of SFHA is 4.1. Once vxfen, gab & llt modules are unloaded to upgrade to 4.1MP2, should i again unload these modules to further upgrade to 5.1SP1 and again to 5.1SP1RP4 (OR) 6.0 ? After each upgrade should i stop the services in /etc/init.d and unload modules (OR) stopping services & unloading modules only once is enough to further upgrade to other versions ? My Plan is to upgrade from 4.1---> 4.1 MP2---> 5.1SP1--->5.1SP1RP4 (OR) 6.0 3) Before upgrading should i also stop & unload the below listed modules 24 12800a8 26920 268 1 vxdmp (VxVM 4.1z: DMP Driver) 25 7be00000 2115c8 269 1 vxio (VxVM 4.1z I/O driver) 27 12a4698 13f0 270 1 vxspec (VxVM 4.1z control/status driver) 213 7b2d7528 c40 272 1 vxportal (VxFS 4.1_REV-4.1B18_sol_GA_s10b) 214 7ae00000 1706a8 20 1 vxfs (VxFS 4.1_REV-4.1B18_sol_GA_s10b) If yes, should i stop & unload after each upgrade (OR) doing it once is enough ? 4) Once the OS comes up with native disks (c#t#d#s#), In order to bring it under VxVM control we need to encapsulate using vxdiskadm. My doubt is will rootdg, rootvol, plexes & subdisks be created automatically? Need a little clarification regarding this please. Response is highly appreciated as always, Thank you very much.

I've installed the webmonitoring on a w2008x64 ev-server, having only admin and directory service. When locally opening the page (localhost/monitoringwebapp/default.aspx), it shows an error with 'guidelines': An error has occurred. An error has occurred. Health monitoring is enabled. The error details have been updated in log.txt. Please contact the administrator or technical support with this file. This list may help you in troubleshooting the issue. Verify that AppPool Identity User is added to IIS_WPG group on the IIS server. Verify that AppPool Identity User has Read access to HKLM\KVS\Enterprise Vault registry key. You can enable Health Monitoring on this application by following these steps - Take a backup of current web.config file. Change the tag <healthMonitoring heartbeatInterval="0" enabled="false"> to <healthMonitoring heartbeatInterval="0" enabled="true">. The Health Monitoring log will be generated in log.txt. There is no logfile. I've verified the above mentioned points, and all is well. Does anyone have an idea, or do I need an EV-server having ALL services running.... thx.

Hi, So I got this 5 pictures.Basicaly I want to create a report with no time bassis on retention level. I want it to show me Client Name, Policy name, Job protected size, Retention Level, Retention Period of the jobs only wiht a retention of >45 days. Simple right? see how I got retention level setted up in host properties(the interval, see picture 1) and add condition in the report. If the retention level is low than 45 days which in term of Opscenter mean Retention Level = interval(0,3) in my case (picture 1 + picture 2) with some simple columns like in picture 3 but I got no results. If I remove the condition Retention Level, and add time bassis like: 45 day before(picture 4+picture 5), I got data, but if I want to add Retention Level condition and play with it I get nothig, why? what i`ve done wrong? Any info you need to figure this out? And what the heck mens retention level -1, No retention? :))) expired? or can I set up a schedule without retention period? //George2KViews0likes2Comments
Full Linux and windows restore without BMR option
Hello, I am not sure if I need to open seperate two discussion for this or not. I have doubts for both. WINDOWS I was going thorugh the following tech note: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH56473 There it is told to restore every thing from the master server in step A (all the drives which contains anything related to program files). My doubt is will it not stop the backup once we are restore will start overwriting the files related to netbackup client? I am asking this after what happened with me with Linux restore explained below. UNIX What needed to be done if we need to restore full Linux system, including everything. The system is live now. I have tried to restore every thing on one running linux system. Restore stopped in between and then I lostt ssh access to the host, it messed the system very badly that we are still trying to bring it up. I know one way is to restore every thing to a seprate disk then boot the system from that seprate disk, but what if I want to restore every thing to the original location not on the seprate disk, is it possible? Let me know if I have not explained my problem well enough. Thanks in advance!Solved8.6KViews1like8CommentsAuto enable disabled useraccounts\mailboxes
Hi, I am using EV10.0.3 and I want to make an ex-employee policy. After a user is not working for the company anymore, it is disabled and hidden from the Exchange GAL and moved to an Active Directory OU named _archive. I created a PG (ex-employee) that provisions users that are in this OU and auto-enables the mailbox Next I added the registery keys: ExcludeDisabledADAccounts and ProcessHiddenMailboxes to the EV server and restarted the services. Investigation turned out that the mailbox is not automatically enabled and is marked as "new mailbox" so it will not archive a thing.... After running the SQL query: update ExchangeMailboxEntry Set MbxExchangeState=’0′ where MbxExchangeState=’2′ The mailbox of the user can be enabled. After the provisioning task is run, the mailbox is hidden again. After running the archiving task the disabled user can be archived with the normal runs. Now I want to know how disabled mailboxes can be enabled automatically, running the SQL query and manual activation of the mailbox is no option.Solved1.4KViews0likes3Comments
