Veritas NetBackup™ Device Configuration Guide

Robotic test utilities

You can use robotic test utilities for testing robots already configured in NetBackup.

Invoke the test utilities as follows:

  • /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/robtest (UNIX and Linux)

  • install_path\Veritas\Volmgr\bin\robtest.exe (Windows)

From each test utility, you can obtain a list of available test commands by entering a question mark (?).

Use the drstat command to determine the drive addressing parameters for the ACS robot type. This command is available in the robotic test utilities for these robot types.

NetBackup addresses drives as follows:

  • For ACS robot types, by ACS, LSM, Panel, and Drive number

  • For other robot types, by the robot drive number
