Ok....That part is covered......
=20
I've been reading the Netbackup High Availability SAG, and it covers
backing up the physical nodes, including the quorum (captured as part of
System_State:\), and the shared resources of a cluster, and it covers
restoring the shared resources, but doesn't tell you how to restore the
physical nodes.
=20
There's a technote for Backup exec that mentioned the "force quorum
restore" option, though that option is non-existant in NBU Enterprise.
=20
When your system dies, and you have to replace both physical nodes, and
the disk array that is shared, how do you go about restoring the two
physical nodes (with quorum) so that cluster service start properly??

        Set up cluster with floating IP used for backups (whether this
is the public LAN or a second backup LAN) e.g. named backup-float-ip.
        Install NBU on both nodes with client name backup-float-ip.
        Set required network interface on both clients to be
backup-float-ip (may only be necessary if using a 2nd NIC for backups).
        Set up policy to backup backup-float-ip.
