Veritas NetBackup™ Bare Metal Restore™ Administrator's Guide

Common UNIX network configuration

The TFTP service must be available. On some of the operating systems, this service is commented out of the /etc/inetd.conf file. They must be uncommented and inetd needs to be refreshed for the BMR boot server to function.

The NFS service must be available and the nfsd daemon must be running. /etc/exports contain the file system entries which are exposed to other clients over NFS protocol. Make a note that no /etc/exports configuration is required to be done manually. BMR handles this configuration automatically.
