[Veritas-bu] Backing up clustered virtual hostnames on SAN Media Servers with 6.5

Up to and including NBU 5.1, we backed up clustered applications on HP Serviceguard clusters, Sun clusters and even MS clusters using the same method. Each of the physical cluster nodes was an NBU SAN Media Server, with it's own storage unit(s), but we would also define a storage unit for each clus

I also ran into this problem as well. It's been a while, but I believe that you have to have the fully qualified domain name of your NB master first in the hosts file. By first I mean, ip address of master, fqdn, and then short name. Short name before fqdn will not work. -djb Dwayne J. Brzozowsk

The issue is specifically that NOM causes the nbsl (NetBackup Service Layer) daemon to dump core (which, incidentally, it does in /, at least on HP-UX, which is just Swell). NetBackup can function normally for backups without nbsl running, but various pieces of the GUI interface can't work with

If I remember correctly, the Vault Base license includes either 2 or 4 tape drives. You then license each tape drive that can participate in a vault operation beyond that. It doesn't matter if you're actually duplicating or just ejecting. On Mon, Oct 6, 2008 at 10:26 PM, Dean <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
