Hi All Many thanks. The problem is this ... The administrator was logged onto the Master Server directly, launched the Backup, Archive Restore tool. When he went to specify netbackup machines / policy type the box did not show the 3rd tab. Now, as the Administrator, I would have expected to

Re: [Veritas-bu] Odd Question - NBU BAR Utility

what do you mean by same rights as myself ? Windows admin rights? or Netbackup admin rights? Does the Windows admin GUI use the auth.conf? (I don't use Netbackup on Windows, so I don't know) If so, have you configure the proper authorizations? -- -Original Message-

Re: [Veritas-bu] Odd Question - NBU BAR Utility

Simon, You might want to check to see if you have your domain account configured properly in the auth.conf file. See page 506 of the NetBackup 6.0 Administration Guide for Windows vol 1. Hope that helps. WEAVER, Simon (external) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: He was

Hi Paul By rights, I mean 2 domain Administrator accounts - my domain Admin account and someone elses Domain Admin account. There is no auth.conf file in use, and I do not recall ever setting one up ! In fact, had a search for the file and could not even find it ! Regards Simon Weaver 3rd Line

[Veritas-bu] Virtual Tape library or backup to disk

Does anyone have any recommendations in regards to VTLs or disk pools, etc. for backup? I have seen a lot of stuff on the market, but I have also heard where some people have found out later that some of the technologies don't always work as smoothly as their slated. i.e. one solution I have seen

Re: [Veritas-bu] Virtual Tape library or backup to disk

Good day Dan, My personal recommendation would be to stay away from any VTL and rather use the DISK to DISK to tape feature which is part of version 6 of NetBackup and even stronger in 6.1. The Veritas (Symantec API) has been released and is currently being included in most of the hardware

Re: [Veritas-bu] Virtual Tape library or backup to disk

I recently spent several months looking at disk technologies. Just generally speaking here I found that Disk Based Backups (DSU/DSSUs) are pretty young in Netbackup and there's quite a few issues that have to be monitored and maintained to make them work correctly. That aside, you can't beat the

Dear All, Now, it is my turn again to ask for some help. I just applied MP6 for our NetBackup 5.1MP5, just for master and all media servers, and today after night backups, I can see a few jobs still running, the backup speed for a few fat backup clients dropped drastically. Does anybody know

That's a bug in 5.1 MP6. There is a binary available if you open a case with NetBackup support. Or if you can wait a few months - the fix will be in 5.1MP7. - We won't tell. Get more on shows you hate to love (and love to hate): Yahoo! TV's Guilty

They should probably look at moving to 6.5 when it comes out and use the Fibre Transport client rather than adding all the media servers. We had a similar model in our infant days with NBU. Lots of media servers all using SSO. The environment was pretty unstable. Once we scaled back our
