OpenStorage direct to tape configuration overview (continued)
DescriptionActionStep
The storage units must be configured as NDMP storage units, and they
must use the NDMP tape storage as their destination.
You do not have to include the write side media servers explicitly in the
storage unit. If you configure Any Available, when the job runs NetBackup
selects a media server that has the logon credentials for the NDMP tape
server.
See the NetBackup Administrator's Guide for UNIX and Linux, Volume I or
the NetBackup Administrator's Guide for Windows, Volume I.
Configure the NetBackup
storage units
Step 5
First ensure that all requirements are met.
See “About NDMP requirements for OpenStorage direct to tape” on page 68.
Then, use one of the following methods for direct to tape:
■ Create a storage lifecycle policy to create the backup and to duplicate
the backup images automatically.
For the Backup destination Storage unit, select the storage unit for the
disk pool on one appliance. For the Duplication destination Storage
unit, select the NDMP storage unit.
See the NetBackup Administrator’s Guide for UNIX and Linux, Volume
I or the NetBackup Administrator's Guide for Windows, Volume I.
■ Create a Vault policy to copy images automatically.
On the Profile dialog box ChooseBackups tab, choose the backup images
in the source disk pool on one appliance. For the Destination Storage
unit on the Duplication tab, select the NDMP storage unit.
See the NetBackup Vault Administrator’s Guide.
■ Use the Duplicate option in the Catalog node of the NetBackup
Administration Console.
Select the NDMP storage unit as the destination for the duplication.
Use the Storage unit field in the Setup Duplication Variables dialog
box.
See the NetBackup Administrator’s Guide for UNIX and Linux, Volume
I or the NetBackup Administrator's Guide for Windows, Volume I.
■ Use the NetBackup bpduplicate command to duplicate images on the
disk appliance to an NDMP storage unit.
See NetBackup Commands Reference Guide..
