Monitor > Appliance Hardware > NetBackup
This view provides the summary of NetBackup appliances - master and media servers - that are added to the OpsCenter Analytics console. The view provides a visual cue to hardware status. You can monitor any hardware failures in the NetBackup appliances (master and media servers) that are added to the OpsCenter console.
See Appliance hardware details.
OpsCenter can monitor the NetBackup appliance 2.0 master servers.
Only appliance 1.2 and 2.0 media servers that are attached to NetBackup appliance 2.0 master server or to a regular NetBackup master server can be monitored by OpsCenter. Data collection from the appliance media servers takes place after every 15 minutes via NBSL. You can monitor any hardware failures in the appliance media servers that are monitored from the OpsCenter console.
Adding a NetBackup appliance master server is similar to adding a regular master server to OpsCenter. More information on how to add an appliance master server to the OpsCenter console is available.
See Adding a master server or appliance in OpsCenter.
Note:
Note that you cannot add a NetBackup appliance media server directly to the OpsCenter console. You can add an appliance master server or a regular master server to which the media server is connected.
