How about running the GUI from the master server?

I never used the GUI on a Linux server, but on a windows master or media server BAR allows me to edit the clients list and select any client for restore, and I can direct the backup to any client also.

Hello everyone, I’m wondering if anyone else out there is having the same problems that I’m having…

 

Master Server:  NBU 7.0.1, Solaris10

Enterprise Client:  NBU 7.0.1, RedHat 5.?

OST Device:  DataDomain 880

 

So all of our backups go through our master server, whether tape or OST.  My issue arrises when we do a restore from the DD, NetBackup can pick the Enterprise Client to do the restore… To begin with the Enterprise client is obviously not defined in any of the clients server lists, secondly, even if it was, it should fail the restore because it is only licensed to backup/restore itself!

 

My understanding is this is a problem with the restore gui, because a restore from the CLI can define the media server to service the restore request.

 

Is anyone else seeing this issue?  If so, have you been able to work around it (besides making server admins do restores from the CLI)?
