5 Configuring Backup Software

Overview

HP 3PAR Recovery Manager can be used with either Symantec NetBackup or HP Data Protector
to back up and restore the virtual copies created by Recovery Manager. Keep in mind:

If you are using backup software in the backup environment, you will need to install a backup
master or client on the backup server.

There should be two master servers containing your backup software for CCR configurations
that span two sites (and two HP 3PAR Storage Systems).

If you are using a multiple-domain configuration, you must use Symantec NetBackup software.

NOTE:

For information about the supported versions of Symantec NetBackup and HP Data

Protector, see the latest HP 3PAR InForm OS Configuration Matrix. To obtain a copy of this
documentation, go to

http://www.hp.com/go/3par/

, navigate to your product page, click Support

for your product, and then click Manuals.

Before You Begin

Ensure that you have set up a storage unit for storing virtual copy backups. For more information,
