Veritas NetBackup™ Deduplication Guide

Deleting credentials from a load balancing server

You may need to delete the NetBackup Deduplication Engine credentials from a load balancing server. For example, disaster recovery may require that you delete the credentials on a load balancing server.

Another procedure exists to remove a load balancing server from a deduplication node.

See Removing an MSDP load balancing server.

To delete credentials from a load balancing server

  • On the load balancing server, run the following command:

    On Windows:

    install_path\Veritas\NetBackup\Volmgr\bin\tpconfig -delete -storage_server sshostname -stype PureDisk -sts_user_id UserID

    On UNIX/Linux:

    /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpconfig -delete -storage_server sshostname -stype PureDisk -sts_user_id UserID

    For sshostname, use the name of the storage server.
