RHEL on Appliances instead of Suse?
Hi all, It has already been mentioned before in one of the threads below: Apparently the Suse installations on Netbackup Appliances will be replaced by Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Supposedly, this is also the reason that 2.7 is not available for the appliances yet, whereas 7.7 is available for other platforms... I have a couple of questions: Is it indeed true that the appliances will be running RHEL in the next update? When will 2.7.1 become available and will it be RHEL based? Why is this switch performed? I can imagine the upgrade process will be quite complicated and may cause many issues during the upgrade process... Any insight on the questions would be appreciated :) Thanks FredSolved954Views0likes2Comments
How to verify that HP-UX support 256K size buffers SAN Client
Hello, I am implementing SAN client for a HP-UX server. I have read Netbackup 7.6 Blueprints for SAN Client so there is recommended to be sure that the HBAs and their drivers must support 256K size buffers for data transfer. I am working on HP-UX client so I would like to know if somebody knows how to validate that information. BR.1KViews3likes4Comments
Disk space (MSDP) discrepencies between master and media server appliance
So I have a discrepency on one of my media server appliances (5220) which is causing me some headaches, since it is reporting "disk full" during my backup window and failing some backups and duplications. Strange thing is that the media server itself shows to only be 89% full (the Java console and OpsCenter show this pool is 96% full): densyma02p.Storage> Show Partition - [Info] Performing sanity check on disks and partitions...

VMware backup over SAN: Appliance to ESX zoning
Guys, I have a Solaris based Master server and 5 x 5220 Appliances (media). I am interested to configure VMware backup over SAN.

If yes, then Appliace is Initiator, what mode the ESX HBA port is supposed to be in? thanks all..Solved2.5KViews0likes6Commentsnetbackup job fails with error 83

HBA configuration is not saved after appliance reboot
Hi Support, Please I need a solution on how I can make my hba cards configuration persistant upon appliance reboot. I notice each time I reboot the appliance, all the hba cards return to the default mode, which is "initiator", whereas some were configured as "target" I have outline the steps I use to configure my hba cards below in case of any mistake. Ojapp5230-02:/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd # nbftsrv_config -nbhba (install hba driver) Ojapp5230-02:/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd # ./nbhba -L (all defaults to "initiator") Ojapp5230-02:/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd # ./nbhba -modify -wwn 21:00:00:24:FF:53:9A:2E -mode target (set some hba cards as "target") Ojapp5230-02:/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd # ./nbhba -L (verify changes) Ojapp5230-02:/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd # nbftsrv_config (updating configuration) Ojapp5230-02.Support> reboot NB: After reboot, I notice all the hba cards defaults to "initiator" and none is "target", please is there any way around these, because there will always be a reboot of the appliance during maintenance. thanks in advance, FelixSolved744Views0likes2Comments
