Remove a trusted master server

Note:

Any trusted master servers at NetBackup version 8.0 or earlier must be removed using the NetBackup Administration Console.

You can remove a trusted master server, which removes the trust relationship between master servers. Note the following implications:

  • Any replication operations fail that require the trust relationship.

  • A remote master server is not included in any usage reporting after you remove the trust relationship.

To remove a trusted master server

  1. Ensure that all replication jobs to the target master server are complete.
  2. Delete all storage lifecycle policies (SLPs) that use the trusted master as a destination. Before deleting an SLP, ensure that there are no backup policies or protection plans that use the SLP for storage.
  3. At the top, select Settings > Global security.
  4. Select Trusted master servers.
  5. Select Actions > Remove.
  6. Click Remove trust.
  7. Repeat step 3 through step 6 on the remote master server.
