Removing a trusted master server
To remove a trusted master server, you must perform the following procedure on both the source and the target server.
Note:
If either your source or the target server is on version 8.0 or earlier, follow the procedure prescribed in the respective guide.
To remove a trusted master server
- Ensure that all replication jobs to the trusted target master server are complete. You can use nbstlutil stlilist to list the state of all storage lifecycle policy-managed operations. To cancel jobs use nbstlutil cancel.
See the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide for information about the nbstlutil command.
- Delete all storage lifecycle policies (SLPs) that use the trusted master as a destination.
Note:
Before deleting a storage lifecycle policy, ensure that there are no backup policies that indicate the SLP for the Policy storage.
- In the NetBackup Administration Console, expand NetBackup Management > Host Properties > Master Servers in the left pane.
- In the right pane, select the master server.
- On the Actions menu, click Properties.
- In the properties dialog box left pane, select Servers.
- In the Servers dialog box, select the Trusted Master Servers tab.
- On the Trusted Master Servers tab, select the trusted master server that you want to remove and click Remove.
The Remove Server confirmation dialog box is displayed.
- Click Yes.
- When you finish removing trusted master servers, click OK.
- Restart the nbsl service.
- Repeat the steps on the source master server.
Note:
In case of multiple NICS, if you have established trust using more that one host NIC and if you remove the trust relationship with any one host NIC, the trust with all the other host NICs is broken.
