Removing a trusted primary server
To remove a trusted primary server, you must perform the following procedure on both the source and the target server.
Note:
If either your source or the target server is on version 8.0 or earlier, follow the procedure that is prescribed in the respective guide.
To remove a trusted primary server
- Ensure that all replication jobs to the trusted target primary server are complete. You can use nbstlutil stlilist to list the state of all storage lifecycle policy-managed operations. To cancel jobs use nbstlutil cancel.
See the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide for information about the nbstlutil command.
- Delete all storage lifecycle policies (SLPs) that use the trusted primary as a destination.
Note:
Before deleting a storage lifecycle policy, ensure that there are no backup policies that indicate the SLP for the Policy storage.
- In the NetBackup Administration Console, expand NetBackup Management > Host Properties > Primary Servers in the left pane.
- In the right pane, select the primary server.
- On the Actions menu, click Properties.
- In the properties dialog box left pane, select Servers.
- In the Servers dialog box, select the Trusted Primary Servers tab.
- On the Trusted Primary Servers tab, select the trusted primary server that you want to remove and click Remove.
The Remove Server confirmation dialog box is displayed.
- Click Yes.
- When you finish removing trusted primary servers, click OK.
- Restart the nbsl service.
- Repeat the steps on the source primary server.
Note:
In case of multiple NICs, if you have established trust using more that one host NIC and if you remove the trust relationship with any one host NIC, the trust with all the other host NICs is broken.
