About clustered NetBackup server recovery for UNIX and Linux

NetBackup server clusters do not protect against catalog corruption, loss of the shared disk, or loss of the whole cluster. Regular catalog backups must be performed. More information is available about configuring catalog backups and system backup policies in a clustered environment.

See the NetBackup High Availability Guide:

The following table describes the failure scenarios and points to the recovery procedures.
