Problem
How to set up a bidirectional trust to configure Veritas Backup Reporter to collect PureDisk data
Solution
How to set
up a bi-directional trust to configure Veritas Backup Reporter in order to
collect PureDisk data
Setup a
bi-directional authentication trust between root brokers.
This
configuration assumes the PureDisk Server and the VBR Server/Agent are installed
each with default local Authentication Root broker.
***Get the
Private Root Domain, Broker, and Port from each host***
1. Logon as
Administrator to VBR Server/Agent and show the Authentication private root
domain
C:\Program
Files (x86)\Symantec\Veritas Backup Reporter\EmbeddedAT\4.4.110.4\bin>vssat
listpd --pdrtype root
RESULT:
Domain(s)
Found 1
****************************
Domain Name
root@VBR_host_name
Expiry
Interval 0
****************************
2. List the
broker and port for the root domain found:
C:\Program
Files (x86)\Symantec\Veritas Backup Reporter\EmbeddedAT\4.4.110.4\bin>vssat
showbrokers --domain vx:root@VBR_host_name (from step #1)
RESULT:
showbrokers
----------------------
----------------------
Broker
Count: 1
Broker Name:
<VBR_host_name> Port Number 2821
3. Logon as
Administrator to the PureDisk SPA server and show the Authentication private
root domain
PureDisk:~>
/opt/VRTSat/bin/vssat listpd --pdrtype root
RESULT:
Domain(s)
Found 1
****************************
Domain Name
root@PureDisk_host_name
Expiry
Interval 0
****************************
4. List the
broker and port for the root domain found:
PureDisk:~>
/opt/VRTSat/bin/vssat showbrokers --domain vx:root@PureDisk_host_name (from step
#3)
RESULT:
showbrokers
----------------------
----------------------
Broker
Count: 1
Broker Name:
<PureDisk_host_name > Port Number 2821
***Setup the
bidirectional trust using the information collected above***
1. Log on as
Administrator to the VBR Server/Agent host and setup a trust to the PureDisk
root broker
C:\Program
Files (x86)\Symantec\Veritas Backup Reporter\EmbeddedAT\4.4.110.4\bin>vssat
setuptrust --broker PureDisk_host_name:2821 --securitylevel low
RESULT:
setuptrust
----------------------
----------------------
Setup Trust
With Broker: <PureDisk_host_name>
2. Log on as
root to the PureDisk SPA host and setup a trust to the VBR root broker as
www-data
PureDisk:~ #
su www-data
www-data@PureDisk:~>
/opt/VRTSat/bin/vssat setuptrust --broker VBR_host_name:2821 --securitylevel
low
RESULT:
setuptrust
----------------------
----------------------
Setup Trust
With Broker: <VBR_host_name>
Add the
PureDisk module in the VBR Console with Settings > Global Settings > Agent
