Adding a valid license and configuring Vault for UNIX and Linux systems
To license NetBackup Vault on a UNIX or Linux system, the NetBackup primary server must be installed and running on the UNIX or Linux computer. In addition, you must have a valid NetBackup Vault license.
To add a valid license and configure Vault for UNIX and Linux systems
- To make sure a valid license for NetBackup Vault is registered on the primary server, enter the following command to list and add licenses:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/get_license_key
In a cluster environment, license NetBackup Vault on all nodes in the NetBackup cluster.
- If you add the NetBackup Vault license after the NetBackup primary server installation is complete, you must start the NetBackup Vault daemon. Perform the following command:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbvault
- Sign into the web UI.
To complete the Vault configuration, you must configure the appropriate NetBackup attributes that Vault uses and identify which NetBackup policies you want to use with Vault (or create new attributes to use with Vault). Please read the following chapters to develop an understanding of how Vault works and how best to configure Vault for your operations. You should configure the email address for notification of session status and enter alternate media server names, if appropriate.
See About configuring Vault Management Properties.
In a cluster environment, you can use the NetBackup Administration Console that is connected through the NetBackup virtual server name to configure Vault. You can do that regardless of which cluster server is currently active.
