Dell PowerVault DR2000v - Manual (Page 24)

24 Setting Up the Dell™ DR Series System on Symantec NetBackup to Use Backup Acceleration | May 2014
3 Set up NetBackup for backup acceleration on Linux
3.1 Prerequisites
3.1.1 OST plugin
Make sure that the Dell OST plugin is installed on the Linux DMA client that is used for NBU backup.
3.1.2 Map external_robotics and external_types files
To enable the backup accelerator for DELL DR4x00/DR6X00, the external_robotics.txt and external_types.txt files must
be mapped.
These instructions assume that NetBackup is installed at the default location of /usr/openv/. If NetBackup is installed in a
different location, substitute that path for /usr/openv/ in the instructions below.
1. Copy the external_types.txt file from the temporary location to /usr/openv/var/global on the master server or the
EMM server:
cp /temp_dir/external_types.txt /usr/openv/var/global/
2. Copy the external_robotics.txt file from the temporary location to /usr/openv/var/global on the master server,
EMM Server, each media server that controls a robot, and each media server from which robot inventories will
be run:
cp /temp_dir/external_robotics.txt /usr/openv/var/global/
3. Update the NetBackup Enterprise Media Manager database with the new device mappings version. This only
needs to be done once and must be run from the Master Server or the EMM Server. Use the command format
below that corresponds to the installed version of NetBackup:
NetBackup 6.5/7.0/7.1/7.5: /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpext –loadEMM
NetBackup 6.0: /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpext
4. For media servers running 6.0_MP4 and earlier, manually update each media server with the new device
mappings. (On media servers running 7.5, 7.1, 7.0, 6.5 or 6.0_MP5 and later, this command is not needed since
Device Manager will update the device mappings when it starts.) This command must be run on each 6.0_MP4
and earlier media server that has devices attached:
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpext -get_dev_mappings
5. Restart Device Manager (ltid) on each media server.
6. Verify that the version that is now stored in the Enterprise Media Manager database is the same as what is in the
file stored on the Media Server:
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpext -get_dev_mappings_ver
