Before You Start

Observe the following points when performing the configurations described in this

chapter:

◆ The VERITAS support web site (http://www.support.veritas.com) contains server

platform compatibility information for a number of vendors and products (see the

NetBackup Product > Compatibility area of the site). Verify that your server platform

is supported before configuring devices.

◆ For NetBackup to recognize and communicate with connected devices and for device

discovery to discover devices, NetBackup issues SCSI pass-thru commands to the

devices in a configuration.

Device files must exist that follow the naming conventions explained in “Configuring

Robotic Controls” on page 74 and “Configuring Tape Drives” on page 75. The

operating system creates all device files automatically.

◆ Use /sbin/hwmgr to verify that the devices are configured correctly. Make sure you

can “see” your devices on the SAN before you install and configure the SSO option.

Configuring Robotic Controls

Robots are controlled through a SCSI or a network connection. Robot control

configuration is explained as follows:

◆ SCSI robotic control is covered in the following section.

◆ Configuration for network controlled robotic libraries is discussed in the appendices

of the VERITAS NetBackup Media Manager System Administrator’s Guide for UNIX and

Linux or the VERITAS NetBackup Media Manager System Administrator’s Guide for

Windows.

Configuring SCSI Robotic Controls

Read this topic if you plan to use a robotic storage device that is controlled through a SCSI

robotic connection. Information on supported SCSI robots (vendor models) can be found

on the VERITAS support web site.

When communicating with SCSI-controlled robotic peripherals, Media Manager robotic

software utilizes the SCSI passthru capability of the media changer driver. The Tru64

UNIX kernel does not have to be changed to use this driver since this driver is part of

basic Tru64 UNIX.
