Editing port information in configuration files
NetBackup does not provide a graphical user interface for all port changes that you might need to make. For some settings, you need to edit the bp.conf file. The following are the bp.conf settings that you might want to change:
ALLOW_NON_RESERVED_PORTS
CLIENT_PORT_WINDOW
CLIENT_RESERVED_PORT_WINDOW
CONNECT_OPTIONS
DEFAULT_CONNECT_OPTIONS
RANDOM_PORTS
SERVER_RESERVED_PORT_WINDOW
SERVER_PORT_WINDOW
For information about the preceding settings, see the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I.
Veritas recommends that you do not change the bp.conf file directly. The following procedure uses general terms to explain how to use the bpgetconfig and bpsetconfig commands to change port information in the bp.conf file.
To change port settings in the bp.conf file
- Type the bpgetconfig command from a NetBackup master server, NetBackup media server, or client.
bpgetconfig options > outputfile
For options, specify options from the bpgetconfig man page.
For outputfile, specify the name of a text file.
- Edit the output file you created to update port information.
For example, on UNIX or Linux platform, you can use vi(1) to edit the file. On a Windows system, you can use Notepad to edit the file.
- Type the bpsetconfig command to write the file back to NetBackup.
For more information about configuration settings and ports, see the following:
