When backing up a cluster to have to use more then one name.

Physical servers are  serverAp and serverBp
The resources belong to serverAr and serverBr

You should set up the backup of any local drives like the c drive to be
backed up via the physical name

You should then set up the backup of the resources by the resource name.
This way if the resource is on Ap or Bp it still finds it because it is
getting to it via the resource.

You still install netbackup on the physical server using the physical
name, and netbackup will be able to back up the resource drive just
fine.

There are some docs out there about how to backup clustered servers.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Backing up cluster after failover


We are having a problem with a cluster backup after a failover. Here are
the particulars:

Cluster running 2003, 2 servers, active-passive, on DMZ, ports open on
firewall, Hosts files on both boxes were edited to include master/media
server.

Master/Media server running 2003, Hosts file edited to include all ip
address for cluster name. 

Everything was running finem until the cluster failed over. Now we are
getting 71 errors. It appears that, when I check the client properties
on the Master/Media server, it still shows the original active node as
the client. How do I get it to change over to the now active node?

Thanks for the help
