You can start and stop NetBackup services from the UI. You can perform the following operations from the UI:

  • Stop each NetBackup service individually.

  • Stop all NetBackup services for a specific node or the cluster without taking the file systems offline and unmounting the file systems.

  • Stop all NetBackup services for a specific node or the cluster and take the file systems offline and unmount the file systems that are used by the services.

  • Start the stopped services.

To start containers:

  1. Use any one of the following options to log on using the user account that you created when you configured the cluster:
    • Use a user account with both Appliance Administrator and NetBackup Administrator role, or a user account with only an Appliance administrator role to log on to the NetBackup Flex Scale web UI https://ManagementServerIPorFQDN/webui where ManagementServerIPorFQDN is the public IP address or the FQDN that you specified for the NetBackup Flex Scale management server during the cluster configuration, and then in the left pane click Cluster Management > Services.

    • Use a user account with an Appliance Administrator role to log on to the NetBackup Flex Scale infrastructure management UI https://ManagementServerIPorFQDN:14161 whereManagementServerIPorFQDN is the public IP address or the FQDN that you specified for the NetBackup Flex Scale management server during the cluster configuration, and then in the left pane click Monitor > NetBackup > Services.

  2. To start services, select the services and click Start.

    The file systems are mounted automatically when you start the services if you had opted to unmount the file systems when you stopped the services.
