Setting up multiple NetBackup media servers in the same domain

To set up the OST connector on multiple NetBackup media servers in the same domain, additional steps must be taken on each NetBackup media server before adding the storage pools in NetBackup.

To set up multiple NetBackup media servers in the same domain

  1. Follow the instructions for setting up the OST connector on each media server that uses the OST connector.

    See Use case 1: Backing up deduplicated data (OpenDedup and NetBackup) using the S3 protocol to Veritas Access.

  2. Edit /etc/sdfs/ostconfig.xml and change the <name> tag to something unique in the NetBackup domain, such as the host name with an incremented number, for example:
    <NAME>hostname-0</NAME>
  3. Follow the instructions in the "Creating an OST disk pool and STU in the NetBackup console" section and use the name in the <NAME> tag as the Storage Server name.

    See Creating an OST disk pool and STU in the NetBackup console.
