Appliance reconfiguration procedures
Use the following procedures as a guide to walk through reconfiguring your
appliance:
Reimaging a NetBackup appliance from the USB drive
The following procedure describes the steps required to install a new image on a
media server appliance. If you want to preserve your backup data, you must perform
the following procedure using the appliance shell menu.
To reimage an appliance from the USB drive
1
If you cannot log into the appliance, insert the USB drive into the appliance,
turn on the appliance, and then proceed to Step 4.
If you can log into the appliance and you can access the appliance shell menu,
export (copy) and move the IPsec credentials to a remote drive using the
following steps and then continue with Step 2.
■ Open a CIFS and an NFS share with the following command:
Manage > Software > Share Open
■ To export (copy) the IPsec credentials, enter the following command:
Network > Security > Export <yes/no> /inst/patch/incoming
Where <yes/no> is for whether you want password protection.
Note: The output from the export command creates a backup .pfx file of
the actual certificate. If you select yes to use a password, the file name is
a number with the .pfx extension (nnnnnnn.pfx). If you select no for no
password, a period precedes the file name (.nnnnnnn.pfx).
If you use a password, retain the name of the password to use when you
run the Import command later in this procedure.
■ To move the .pfx files into a local directory on a remote computer, create
and mount a mount point and then move the files as follows:
This example assumes that the Windows system uses Samba.
■ Create and mount a mount point as follows:
net use <AnAvailableDriveLetter>:
\\<appliance-host>\"incoming_patches"
■ Copy the .pfx file as follows:
# copy /inst/patch/incoming/*.pfx
/mnt/<computer_name>
