If you are using an NDMP storage unit on the solaris host you must specify
the drive path as "hostname:/dev/rmt/Xcbn" not just "/dev/rmt/Xcbn" as
this is how NBU knows what is and what is not an NDMP dedicated drive (Im
assuming u arent on NBU 6 which allows drives to be in both NDMP and
standard storage units simultaneously)

Subject: [Veritas-bu] NDMP backup question
Hey all, I currently have a linux master/media server, with a
scsi-attached robot, housing 10 drives, 4 of which are scsi attached
to the master/media server, 5 of which are fibre attached to netapp
filers. The spare drive is currently fibre attached to a newly built
solaris box (solaris 10).
We are trying to set up the solaris box as a media server/ndmp host
for 3-way backups of mirapoint email appliances (which support
3-ways).
The solaris box can see/communicate fine with the tape drive. It is
set up as a storage unit on the master, with the media manager set to
the solaris box, with storage unit type ndmp. For some reason or
another everytime we try to kick off a policy to backup using it we
immeadietly get a 219 (storage unit unavailable). The logs
specifically say (on the solaris box), that there is no NDMP drive
attached to the solaris box in the robot (tld 0 -> on the linux box).
Anyone have any thoughts on this one?
-Shane
