[Veritas-bu] Restore from a SDLT320 tape media using a SDLT600 drive

2010-03-14 Thread Calvin Chen W. K.
I have a robotic library with mixture of SDLT320 tape drives and SDLT600 
tape drives.   In my Netbackup 5.1 storage units configuration all the 
SDLT320 tape drives were configured as 1 storage unit and all the 
SDLT600 tape drives were configured as another storage unit.


If I want to restore a backup image from the SDLT320 tape media it will 
always select one of the drives of the SDLT320 storage unit for 
restoration however I will need to use the drive from SDLT600 storage 
unit for restoration because my SDLT320 storage unit is always busy.


Please enlighten the procedure to restore from a SDLT320 tape media 
using a SDLT600 drive. 


thank you.

[Veritas-bu] Version 6.5 Transferring image files between Master Servers

2010-03-04 Thread Calvin Chen W. K.

Hi smpt1,

do you mean the image files is the Netbackup db catalog files that was 
stored a the default installation path /usr/openv/netbackup/db?Can I 
just do a solaris cp command to copy the files to another path?   Do I 
need to shutdown the netbackup services by running # netbackup stop 
command before doing the copy.?


thank you.

[Veritas-bu] Netbackup 5.1 to use a specific tape drive for restoration.

2010-03-03 Thread Calvin Chen W. K.
The current setup of the Netbackup is 1 unit of Server running Solaris 8 
configured as Netbackup Master/Media Server.   1 unit of L180 tape 
library with 4 SDLT320 tape drives and 1 unit of SDLT320 standalone tape 
drive is connected to the server.   May I know how to restore using the 
SDLT320 standalone tape drive instead of using the L180 tape library?


Note:  Backup of the client was to the L180 tape library SDLT320 tape 
drive and the tape needed for the restoration have been identified and 
ejected from the L180 tape library.
