NetBackup™ Flex Scale Administrator's Guide

Considerations for adding a node when disaster recovery is configured

If disaster recovery is configured and you want to add a new node to the cluster, review the following guidelines:

  • Add the new node independently on each cluster.

  • The NetBackup catalog file system is grown on both the sites only if the secondary site can also grow the catalog file system.

  • Add the new node(s) independently on each cluster.

  • Catalog file system is not grown as part of add node operation.

  • The NetBackup catalog filesystem is grown on both the sites after add node operation completes on both clusters. Both clusters have the same number of nodes and can grow the catalog file system.
