Description

To change a proxy server configured for Alta Recovery Vault in NetBackup the following steps are necessary.

A. Update the information of the cloud instance

  • For a NetBackup Primary server running on Linux connect via ssh
  • If NetBackup is on Flex or Flex Scale use sudo -i to become root.
  • Examine the storage server name and current proxy server configuration on the cloud instance:
    • If Alta Recovery Vault is on Azure, use the command /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/csconfig cldinstance -i -in Veritas-Alta-Recovery-Vault-Azure
    • If Alta Recovery Vault is on AWS, use the command /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/csconfig cldinstance -i -in Veritas-Alta-Recovery-Vault-Amazon
    • If Alta Recovery Vault is on GCP, use the command /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/csconfig cldinstance -i -in Veritas-Alta-Recovery-Vault-Google
    • The parameter -in <instance_name> depends on your NetBackup version of cloud configuration file. The command /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/csconfig cldinstance -l will display the list of cloud providers available.
  • Update the current proxy configuration using the command below
    • /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/csconfig cldinstance -us -in <instance_name> -sts <storage_server_name> -pxtype HTTP -pxhost <proxy_ip> -pxport <proxy_port>
