NBU /usr/openv
Created: 15 May 2010 | 2 comments
Dear all,
i have a quick question.
i neeed to perform a ufsdump on /usr/openv Netbackup Master Server 6.5.4 (running Solaris 10 5.10)
kinldy correct me where i am wrong.
1) i have stopped all NBU services.
2) took ufs dump on the SAN volume. (i need the assurance , i did not umount the /usr/openv just stopped NBU services and taking ufsdump. does this work fine ?)
your kind reponses are awaited.

I have not personally tested
I have not personally tested this, but evey bit of my Solaris and NBU knowledge tells me it should be fine.
Do you have another system (like a DR master) to test a restore?
Supporting Storage Foundation and VCS on Unix and Windows as well as NetBackup on Unix and Windows.

Be carefull
UFS dump only dump the local file system, so if you have split Netbackup up in multiple file system you may not got get it all.
e.g.
/usr/openv
/usr/openv/netbackup/db
/usr/openv/logs
Then ufs dump will take a copy of /usr/openv but not /usr/openv/netbackup/db
Assumption is the mother of all mess ups.
