About configuring the HP-XP array for NetBackup
You must add each NetBackup client and alternate client to a host group on the HP-XP array.
Note the following:
The name of the host group must match the host name or fully qualified domain name of the client as specified in the NetBackup policy. The name should not be more that 16 characters in length.
For host entries in the host groups, specify the WWNN/WWPN of each host.
