Configuring BMR Master Server
After installing NetBackup, setup the BMR master server and create the BMR database.
Bare Metal Restore master server gets installed with NetBackup master server. After the installation you have to configure the Bare Metal Restore master server.
See the NetBackup Administrator's Guide for information about NetBackup master server installation.
In a cluster environment, configure BMR master server on the active node only.
Note:
If you license and set-up BMR in a cluster environment, freeze the active node before you begin so that migrations do not occur. For information about how to freeze a service group, see the NetBackup in Highly Available Environments Administrator's Guide.
To create the BMR database and setup the BMR master server
- Log on as the root user on the system on which the NetBackup master server is installed.
- Run the following command to configure the BMR database:
%NB_INSTALL_DIR%/bin/bmrsetupmaster
After you have setup the BMR master server, you can configure backup policies to collect BMR required information from NetBackup clients.
