NetBackup™ Web UI Administrator's Guide

Remove mappings for a host that has multiple host names

You can remove any host name mappings that NetBackup added automatically. Or, any host name mappings that you added manually for a host. Note that if you remove a mapping, the host is no longer recognized with that mapped name. If you remove a shared or a cluster mapping, the host may not be able to communicate with other hosts that use that shared or cluster name.

If you have issues with a host and its mappings, you can reset the host attributes. However, that resets other attributes like a host's communication status.

See Reset a host's attributes.

To remove a host name that NetBackup discovers

  1. On the left, select Security > Host mappings.
  2. Locate the host that you want to update.
  3. Click Actions > Manage mappings.
  4. Locate the mapping you want to remove and click Delete > Save.
