Install VERITAS Netbackup “Client” on a Clustered server.
Hi,
We are on Netbackup 7.0 (Redhat 5.4).
I would like in install Netbackup client 6.5.4 on a Linux SuSE x86_64.
The cluster setup is Active and Passive mode.
Here are the Server details
Server Name IP Address Cluster Status Cluster Virtual IP Cluster Virtual Name
---------------- ---------------- ------------------ ------------------ -----------------------
Node1 172.24.1.111 Active 172.24.1.150 ABC_PROD
Node2 172.24.1.112 Passive 172.24.1.150 ABC_PROD
Do I have to Install Netbackup Client on both the Nodes ? or just I have to install it on Node1.
Please advise, this is my first Installation on Cluster setup.
With Regards.

Install NBU on both nodes.
Test hostname lookup to physical and virtual hostname - ensure forward and reverse lookup work in all directions: clients -> server(s), server(s) -> clients.
Config one policy for the the virtual hostname to backup cluster data.
Config another policy for physical node names to backup non-cluster data. ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES should be fine with exclude_list on both nodes (exclude_list.policy_name) to exclude cluster data for this policy.
Supporting Storage Foundation and VCS on Unix and Windows as well as NetBackup on Unix and Windows.
Handy NBU links
