Creating the data directories for 250-TB MSDP support

NetBackup requires that each storage volume contain a directory named data.

You must create the data directories on the second and third volumes that are required for 250-TB support. (NetBackup creates the required data directory on the volume that you specify in the Storage Server Configuration Wizard.)

Prerequisite

The volumes must be formatted with the file systems that NetBackup supports for MSDP and mounted on the storage server.
See About provisioning the storage for MSDP.
The storage server must be configured already.
See Configuring a storage server for a Media Server Deduplication Pool.

To create the data directories for 250-TB MSDP support

In both the second and third volumes for the Media Server Deduplication Pool, create a data subdirectory at the volumes's mount points, as follows:
mount_point/data
The following is an example of the mount points for the three required storage volumes:
```
/msdp/vol0  <--- NetBackup creates the data directory in this volume
/msdp/vol1  <--- Create a data directory in this volume
/msdp/vol2  <--- Create a data directory in this volume
```
