Hello
The objective here was to create a Disk Staging Storage
Unit (DSSU) and not merely Disk Storage Unit (DSU).
I followed the procedure in teh Netbackup System Admin Guide for UNIX
Ver 6.0 (Pages 48-49). The procedure basically is as follows.
1. From the GUI click on new storage unit.
2. Selected " Disk" as the Storage unit type.
3. Selected "Basic Disk" as the Disk Type.
4. Provided the absolute pathe name to the filesystem that I created for
the dsu. ( e.g /dsu1)
5. Now just below that I have teh following options.
Max concurrent jobs allowed : ( I can edit this)
Reduce fragment size : (If I check the box I can edit this)
High Water Mark : ( I can edit this)
Low Water Mark (Staging only) : This option is greyed out I CANNOT
EDIT THIS OPTION or in other words not available.
6. As per the manual I should also see one more checkbox " This storage
unit is a temp staging area" . I DO NOT SEE THIS BOX AT ALL IN THE ABOVE
gui.
Is there a separate WAY to create a DSSU as opposed to DSU??? Because I
am intrested in creating a DSSU and Not merely a DSU.
Also someone on this forum has mentioned that with Ver 6.0 and MP2 the
"low water mark" option is not available in the GUI when used on a UNIX
master/media and that it was available in Ver 6.0 MP1.
Maybe it is a BUG in Ver 6.0 MP2.
Thanks
Sandeep

Can you describe a little more which "procedure given in the
docs" that you are following?
DSU or DSSU ??

Hi
Have Netbackup Server Base Edition Ver 6.0 + MP2
installed and configured on my UNIX machines. Have One master as well as
Media configured to backup 25 clients.
Wanted to create a DSU for temporary disk staging area
to be dumped to tapes at a later time. Follow the procedure given in the
docs to create the DSU but I just do not see the "Low Water Mark" stuff
enabled for me to anything nor do I see any checkbox to state that this
is a temp staging area.
I thought that functionality of disk staging was
available under Netbackup Server Base Edition.
I am sure I am missing something here???
Thanks
Sandeep
