FT option descriptions (continued)
DescriptionFT option
This option lets you enable Fibre Transport for optimized duplication and Auto Image
Replication to other NetBackup appliances that are used as target hosts.
By default, this option is disabled and the appliance cannot communicate with a
target appliance over FC.
Note: To use this option, you must enable FC communication on the associated
target NetBackup appliance.
If you plan to use a NetBackup 5020 or 5030 appliance as the target, see the
NetBackup Deduplication Appliance Software Administrator's Guide
If you plan to use a NetBackup 52xx or 53xx appliance as the target, see the following
for configuration.
See “Configuring Fibre Transport for optimized duplication and Auto Image
Replication over FC” on page 67.
Enable Fibre Transport for
replication to other NetBackup
Appliances
This option lets you configure FT on a NetBackup 52xx or 53xx appliance to use it
as a target for optimized duplication and Auto Image Replication.
When the option is enabled, the Port mode configuration table is activated, and
then you can configure the HBA ports to be target ports for optimized duplication
and Auto Image Replication.
See “About the HBA port mode configuration table” on page 61.
Note: To use this option, you must also enable FT for optimized duplication and
Auto Image Replication to other NetBackup Appliances on the associated source
appliance.
See “Configuring Fibre Transport on a target appliance for optimized duplication
and replication” on page 71.
By default, this option is disabled and the other appliances cannot use this appliance
as a target through FC connection.
