Setting Up HP Data Protector Cell Manager Access

To use HP Data Protector with Recovery Manager, you must enable the system accounts on the
registered client system to access the Data Protector Cell Manager.
1.

Open the Data Protector GUI.

2.

In the toolbar drop-down list, select Users.

3.

Under the Users folder in the left pane, choose admin, and then choose SYSTEM.

4.

In the Client system drop-down list on the General tab in the right pane, select <Any>.

For more information on installing HP Data Protector, see HP Data Protector documentation.

Using Your Backup Software

The default mount point for virtual copy backups is:

<system drive>:\3parSnapshot

You must manually synchronize backups. If a backup expires in your backup software, you
must manually remove the backup from Recovery Manager. If you remove a valid backup
from Recovery Manager, you must manually remove it from your backup software.

Recovery Manager does not track restore progress. You must use your backup software to
monitor restore progress.

For more information about using CLI commands with your backup software, see RMExch
backup

, RMExch deletebackup, RMExch listbackup, and RMExch restore in

“Using the Recovery Manager CLI” (page 49)

.

For more information about using your backup software to back virtual copies up to media
or to restore virtual copies from media, see

“Using the Recovery Manager GUI” (page 31)

.

Using Symantec NetBackup

Symantec NetBackup software is case-sensitive. If you are using NetBackup, make sure all
information entered pertaining to the policy is supplied with the proper case.

Any time you are using NetBackup to back up to media or restore from media, you can monitor
the progress using the progress log:

<RM_installation_location>\log\nbulog\Mailbox_Database_timestamp.log

To modify the timeout value for NetBackup software initialization, see

“Understanding the

Registry” (page 20)

.

Using HP Data Protector

For each HP Data Protector backup you create, a postscript (.bat) file is created in the $DP_HOME\
bin

folder (where $DP_HOME is the Data Protector install location; for example, C:\ program

files\Omniback

.) This script cleans up after the associated backup is complete.

Note that Recovery Manager does not clean these postscripts. After a backup is complete (either
successfully or with failures), you can manually remove the associated postscript batch file if desired.
