[Veritas-bu] NetBackup training

We are currently using NBU 6.5 for Windows and I am trying to pass my admin duties on to a new hire. I have not seen any training dates for NBU 6.5 for Windows for the Baltimore/D.C. area. Has anyone had NBU 7.0 for Windows training? Is it similar enough to the 6.5 training that we could send th

[Veritas-bu] NOM Login

I recently installed NOM on one of my client machines. When I pull up the web interface to login though, I am unable to log in with the credentials I entered during setup. I added my NOM server to the master/media server under Host Properties>Master Server>Additional Servers, and then restarted t

[Veritas-bu] NOM

Does anyone know the filename for the NOM install file from the FTP site? Or is the NOM install part of the server/client install CD? I downloaded this: NetBackup_6.5_OpMgr.tar.gz, but when I unpacked it, there was no install file...just a bunch of database files (unless I overlooked it). Als

[Veritas-bu] Cannot Write to Tape

My backups write to disk without any problem, but when I try to run a Tape Backup I get one of three status codes: 200, 252 or 800. I have researched all three and still have not been able to come up with a solution. I am running NBU 6.5 for Windows on a Dell 2950 with Server 2003 as the OS. The

[Veritas-bu] Jobs Que up but will not Start

I recently noticed that I have a handful of jobs that are qued up, but won't seem to actually run. There have been no changes to the NBU configuration and it was working before. The only change that has occurred is that our network has been re-IP'd (IT assigned new IP's to our servers). Is this

[Veritas-bu] Tape Loader Not Connecting

It seems that my tapeloader (Dell Powervault 124T) has become "disconnected" from my backup server. I deleted it from NBU and re-configured it using the Wizard, but I still get failures when try to manually start a tape backup. I checked the back of the server and there is an amber light on the P

[Veritas-bu] Single File Deletion

I was recently informed that someone I work with has had files stored on our file server that should not have been there. They have since deleted the original files, but the copies that are stored in the NBU images are still on our backup server. Is it possible to delete individual files from an

I have a Windows Server 2003 server as my NBU server and a mixed Windows/Linux client environment. I am running NBU 6.5 on the W2K3 backup server. I was able to get the two Windows clients configured with no problems and I was also able to get five of the seven Linux clients configured. The rema

I have finally gotten NetBackup installed in a mixed environment and working properly. I was testing the restore on the Windows side and it appears to be working fine, but I'm a little lost on how to do a restore on the Linux side. I tried to do one from NBU master server, but the Linux servers w

[Veritas-bu] (no subject)

We are trying to get Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.0 and NBU 6.5 to connect/talk. We have installed a NBU Linux client from the Symantec download site and xinetd, but the two (Linux & NBU) do not see each other. Do you need to configure the client service a certain way on the Linux box, other than t

[Veritas-bu] Fresh Install

What could cause NBU not to see a robot, on a fresh install? I uninstalled the tape device from Device Manager, rebooted the server, reinstalled it and rebooted again. When I tried to add the robot it said it was unable to see any robotic libraries on the host. __

[Veritas-bu] First time setup problems

I need to set up NB to cover 10 servers (7 Linux & 3 Windows). I have not started with the Linux servers, but have configured the Windows servers. I have a dedicated Backup server, so I am having everything backup to a directory on that server(disk) and then transferring that directory to tape.
