Recovering your catalogue to a different master server with a different
hostname is not an easy task.
I have managed to do it in a test environment with Netbackup 3.4.1 but
no version later than that.
Alternatively you can copy your client image directories from the old
server to the new server and run the bpimage cmd to register the old
images to the new server hostname 
e.g. bpimage -oldserver "OLDHOSTNAME" -newserver "NEWSERVER"
You can also use the "media host override option" under the master
servers host properties

Hi,


A quick question: I have a Solaris Master NetBackup DC4.5 being
cataloged daily. We want to verify the catalog recovery and run few test
restores using a different (secondary) NetBackup Master server @ some
frequency. Please let me know whether or not i can recover the NetBackup
catalog from one Master server to a different Master server (with a
different name and I.P.address) and run the restoration to the same NB
clients that are backedup using primary Master?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated?

 
Kind Regards
-Arun


Have a great day!!

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Upgrade from 4.5_FP3 to FP6

Hi,

Has anyone done this successfully?  I keep reading on various forums
about
problems post-upgrade to FP6 - increased incidences of error 52, jobs
failing, stalling etc etc.

We need to go up from FP3 to enable Win2003 servers to run as San Media
Servers and I don't want to introduce any further cause for concern. A
lot
of admins seems to be sticking at FP5 before making the leap to 5.x (not
an
option here yet)

Thanks - Tim

From: william.d.brown AT gsk DOT com

Yes, we use 256k with LTO1 drives.   The Emulex FC driver does not have 
the 64k limit.   It really only applies to drivers that use the NT SCSI 
miniport driver, which is most SCSI drivers and some FC drivers.  For 
those you can raise the limit to whatever you want by changing the 
registry parameter maximum_sglist.  Look back in the list archives, it
is 
explained in better detail.

Once you have done that you can raise the Netbackup parameter as for
other 
systems.   Of course, not all tape drives may benefit from it; but at 
least you will be able to restore from tapes written at larger block 
sizes!

So:   Try it.   Be methodical and read the Veritas paper on tuning 
NetBackup on windows, as you must look at the buffers wait & delay
timers. 
 Maybe you just need more buffers.  Often the published values are for
the 
days of systems with a few MB of RAM.    Now if you have many GB and you

have a dedicated media server, use it!

I would like to create a filelist for a windowsNT users server 
to break up a 200GB directory into 3 smaller streams
I want to use:
 
NEW_STREAM
/D/Users/[a-j]*
NEW_STREAM
/D/Users/[k-r]*
NEW_STREAM
/D/Users/[s-z]*
 
However it seems that windows doesn't extrapolate the pattern inside the
[ ]
So I am forced to use????
 
NEW_STREAM
/D/Users/a*
/D/Users/b*
/D/Users/c*
/D/Users/d*
/D/Users/e*
/D/Users/f*
/D/Users/g*
/D/Users/h*
/D/Users/i*
/D/Users/j*
NEW_STREAM
/D/Users/k*
/D/Users/l*
and so on to next stream
NEW_STREAM
/D/Users/s*
/D/Users/t*
well you get the picture. 
and adding uppercase makes it even more tedious.
 
Any thoughts...or should I just bull my way through it?

        Probably not.  To be able to use the catalog from "Master A" you
will
need to at least fool the host that is "Master B" into thinking it has
the same
name as "Master A".  You will still not be able to run the restores from
the
imposter master because clients will do a reverse lookup on the IP and
it will
not match the name of "Master A".

What if you modified the host's host file to evade the reverse lookup?

Then the client will not recognize the real master and this has a
potential of
getting messy.
