Adding multiple master servers

The NetBackup master server is registered with Access Appliance during NetBackup client configuration so that it can communicate with the Access Appliance. If necessary, you can add multiple master servers with the same NetBackup client.

To add an additional NetBackup master server

  • Add an additional new NetBackup master server to the existing client configuration. Required certificates of the new master server are generated as part of this command.
    Backup> netbackup master-server add auth_token master_server  
[master_ip]

    master_server

    FQDN of the master server

    auth_token

    Authorization token to generate th host ID based certificates

    master_ip

    IP address of the master server

To delete a NetBackup master server

  • Remove a master server from the existing client configuration. 
    Backup> netbackup master-server del master_server

    CA and host ID certificates for the specified master server is deleted and its associated entry from the configuration files also removed.
