Subject: NetApp NDMP Veritas NetBackup SunStoredge L1000
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello all,
i know it's a long email but i had to describe the system to give you a
clear idea.
My system contains:
*A robot library: Sun Storedge L1000, with 2 tape drives in it.
*2 NDMP hosts to be connected physically to this library, they
are NetApp filers , ONTAP 5.3.6R2 ,
*On the same LAN i got an Ultra10 solaris 7 machine on which installed
Veritas NetBackup 3.4 data center with NDMP option installed, this will
be my master/media server.
What i'm wondering about now is:
1.The filer connected to the library detects it as mc0 but does not
detect the drives in the library.
is there a reconfiguration reboot to do in netapp ? i did reboot it but
no change.
2.On adding the robot to NetBackup configuration, it requires:
device host = master/media server (NetBackup for NDMP server).
volume database host = master/media server (NetBackup for NDMP server).
robot device = logic name of robot
NDMP host name = ?? ex: toaster1
Here i need to specify an NDMP host name .
So will i create a robot entry for each NDMP host? though they r both
connected to same robot ??
3.On adding the drive, it depends also on the NDMP host name:
ex: toaster1:nrst0a will the other drive be toaster1:nrst1a , or
toaster2:nrst1a ???
4.Then on adding the storage unit: it also needs NDMP host name, will i
add 2 storage units with the same configuration but differ in NDMP
hostname only ??
I know it's a complex configuration, i'm planning for it from about 6
weeks ago and still doing search on it
Have you got any idea about such configuration?
Is it ok to connect both netapp filers to same library?
Best Regards ,
