Problem

As noted in the 7.5 Release Notes, Shared EMM and Remote EMM are pending removal as valid configurations.

 Below is the text from the NetBackup 7.5 Release Notes:

In the next major release after 7.5, support for Remote-EMM and Shared-EMM server configurations will be withdrawn.Remote-EMM and Shared-EMM server configurations are defined by the components that include the NetBackup relational database (NBDB), Enterprise Media Manager (EMM), and Resource Broker (RB) being defined on a server that is not the master server.  See the section, “About the Enterprise Media Manager” in the NetBackup Administrator's Guide - Volume 1 for more information.

 

Solution

Support for remote-EMM and shared-EMM server configurations is withdrawn in 7.6.  In a remote- or shared-EMM server configuration, the NetBackup relational database (NBDB), the Enterprise Media Manager (EMM), and the Resource Broker (RB) have been moved to a server that is not the master server. 


Customers who are using this option should contact Veritas Support who will engage Veritas Engineering to review the options to disengage this option from an environment.
