Troubleshooting

  • Unable to login with 'NetBackup Web Username' provided in while deploying the primary server.

Steps to resolve the issue:

  • Edit the security group of the NetBackup server to allow SSH access on port 22. Make sure you only allow access from the trusted sources in your network.

  • Go to the Output section in the CloudFormation Stack and note down the NetBackup server private/public IP.

  • SSH connect to the NetBackup server using the username for the ec2-user, and the PEM file corresponding to the key pair selected during deployment.

  • Use the command sudo passwd root to set a password for the root user.

  • Use the root user and password to log on to the NetBackup console (Java or Remote Administration Console).

  • Launch the NetBackup Web UI using https://<primaryserver>/webui/login.

    Note:

    The primaryserver is the host name or IP address of the NetBackup primary server that you want to sign in to.
