Veritas NetBackup™ Snapshot Client Administrator's Guide

About enabling the NetBackup client to execute VxVM commands on the CVM master node

To back up a VxVM volume that is in a shared disk group on a CVM slave node, certain VxVM commands may have to be executed remotely on the CVM master node. Therefore, you must enable the NetBackup client to execute the commands on any node. (This requirement applies to the FlashSnap or VxVM snapshot methods only.)

For further instructions, see Enabling the NetBackup client to execute VxVM commands on the CVM master node in the following Veritas tech note:
