Hello Charles
Here is the setup I would use
physical node 1 ALL_LOCAL_DIVES with an exclude list of the cluster-drives
physical node 2 ALL_LOCAL_DIVES with an exclude list of the cluster-drives
physical node 3 ALL_LOCAL_DIVES with an exclude list of the cluster-drives
logical node 1 (cluster ip 1) the relevant drive
logical node 2 (cluster ip 2) the relevant drive
make the relevant files under ../netbackup/db/altnames, then test restore of
a single file from each physical node
regards
Michael
