Hi,
I should tell you guys how is my configuration look
like. I have 2 unix machines. Lets call it systemA and
systemB. Both machines have netbackup business server
running (same version - 4.5). And both machines have
tape library attach to it. Basically they dont share
between each other. Lately I've been thinking, I
should config netbackup so that I can backup or
restore using either machines (systemA or systemB).
What I want is systemA can backup and restore systemB.
And systemB can backup and restore systemA. At least
in case of something happen to either tape library on
each machine, I still can run my backup or restore
from any systems.
Is this possible? Anything I should change in
netbackup application on either machine?
Thanks again.
regards,
feroz
