Registering a media server
If the master server is not running when you install a media server, the media server is not registered. You cannot discover, configure, and manage the devices of that media server. You must register the media server with the master server.
To register a media server
- Start the EMM service on the master server.
- On the master server, run the following command. (For hostname, use the host name of the media server.)
On Windows:
install_path\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\nbemmcmd -addhost -machinename hostname -machinetype media -masterserver server_name -operatingsystem os_type -netbackupversion level.major_level.minor_level
On UNIX:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbemmcmd -addhost -machinename hostname -machinetype media -masterserver server_name -operatingsystem os_type -netbackupversion level.major_level.minor_level
Note:
Ensure that the name you use in NetBackup is the same as the host name in the TCP/IP configuration.
Information about nbemmcmd command usage is available.
