NetBackup naming conventions
NetBackup has rules for naming logical constructs, such as clients, disk pools, backup policies, storage lifecycle policies, and so on. Generally, names are case-sensitive. The following set of characters can be used in user-defined names and passwords:
Alphabetic (A-Z a-z) (names are case-sensitive)
Numeric (0-9)
Period (.)
Do not use periods in the WORM volume names.
Plus (+)
Hyphen (-)
Do not use a hyphen as the first character.
Underscore (_)
These characters are also used for foreign languages.
Note:
No spaces are allowed.
The Logical Storage Unit (LSU) name or the Domain Volume name must have fewer than 50 ASCII characters including a hyphen (-) and an underscore (_) and must not have a blank space.
The naming conventions for the NetBackup Deduplication Engine differ from these NetBackup naming conventions.
