Has anyone done this NB 4.5_FP5 or later?
It seems pretty straight forward.
But I have had massive headaches from discovery NB 3.4
Once bitten....

On the Master Server:
>From a command prompt:

1. Run \install_path\veritas\volmgr\bin\vmglob -delete
This will delete all the global database entries.

2. Run \install_path\veritas\volmgr\bin\vmglob -set_gdbhost <global DB
hostname> -h volume_database_host
This will ensure that the master server is set as the global and volume
database host.
Note: The global DB host name and the volume_database_host under most
circumstances will be the host name of the Master Server.

3. Run \install_path\veritas\volmgr\bin\tpautoconf -upgrade
This will auto detect all previously configured devices on the Master Server
and populate the globalDB

4. Run \install_path\veritas\volmgr\bin\vmglob -listall.
The list should reflect all the devices configured on the master server and
list the master as host name and volume database host name for each device.

On each Media Server, from a command prompt:
Repeat Steps 2 through 4.

Note: After each update the vmglob -listall command should reflect the
additional devices configured on the media servers. The volume database host
name will be the master server host name. The host name will be the media
server where the device is configured.
