configure celerra backup to datadomain

i need to configure celerra to backup filesystems to datadomain over FC. We are using netbackup

i have zoned DD to celerra created drives and can see them.

server_2 :

               Scsi Device Table

name                addr         type  info

tape1               c416t0l0     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

ttape2              c416t0l1     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

ttape3              c416t0l2     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

ttape4              c416t0l3     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

ttape5              c416t0l4     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape6               c416t0l5     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape7               c416t0l6     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape8               c416t0l7     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape9               c416t0l8     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape10              c416t0l9     tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape11              c416t0l10    tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape12              c416t0l11    tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape13              c416t0l12    tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape14              c416t0l13    tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape15              c416t0l14    tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

tape16              c416t0l15    tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 8711

gk01                c0t0l15      disk  577389D13411SI000190105489

tape4               c96t0l4      tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD4 A239

tape5               c96t0l5      tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD4 B7C0

jbox1               c96t0l1      jbox  ADIC Scalar i2000 595A

tape2               c96t0l2      tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD4 A239

tape3               c96t0l3      tape  IBM ULTRIUM-TD4 A239

gk161               c16t0l15     disk  577389D13401SI000190105489

jbox17              c416t1l0     jbox  STK L180 0306

Then i create vtlu:

$ server_vtlu server_2 -tlu -list

server_2 :

id    vendor     product    revision   serial_number     device_name

2     EMC        svtlRobot  1.01       ET6D8492k5        c0t0l0

Add storage:

$ server_vtlu server_2 -storage -new dd2_vtlu_fs -tlu 2

$server_2 : done

$server_vtlu server_2 -tlu -list

server_2 :

id    vendor     product    revision   serial_number     device_name

2     EMC        svtlRobot  1.01       ET6D8492k5        c0t0l0

Then check drives:

$server_vtlu server_2 -drive -list 2

server_2 :

drive_id  device_name   serial_number  status    tape_barcode

0         c0t0l1        CIpXkIC000     empty

1         c0t0l2        SeO5mIC000     empty

2         c0t0l3        8LcenIC000     empty

3         c0t0l4        ohBmoIC000     empty

Check tapes:

$server_vtlu server_2 -tape -list 2

server_2 :

barcode       filesystem     capacity(GB)   location     source_slot

0D3D0000      dd2_vtlu_fs    50             slot:0

Obviously something does not click here, has anyone any suggestions here?

Ok - Then once you see the tape drives with on the Celerra and figure out the names you should be ok

you don't need to create vtlu . Once the datamover can see the drives from DD, you need to create an account on Celerra and use it in your Netbackup configuration.

NDMP account and password are confgured as we are doing backups using netbackup over LAN.

problem is when full backup is happening clients get disconnected from CIFs so need to move backups to FC.

Dont use server_vtlu – this would to configure an internal VTLU – not what you want

Take a look at the VNX NDMP manuals – they explain both the concepts and the configuration steps

The next thing you need is to configure an NDMP account and password
