Establishing a connection with NAT media server before catalog recovery
If the catalog was backed up on a NAT media server, you must carry out the following steps on the primary server to establish a connection with the NAT media server before catalog recovery.
To establish a connection with the NAT media server
- Run the configureMQ command on the primary server.
- Use the nbsetconfig command to set the following configuration options on the primary server:
Update NAT_SERVER_LIST with the NAT media server name where the catalog backup was taken.
Set INITIATE_REVERSE_CONNECTION to TRUE.
For more information on configuration options, see the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I.
- Restart services on the primary server.
- Ensure whether a reverse connection between the primary server and the NAT media server is established using the bptestbpcd command.
