About the MSDP contentrouter.cfg file

The contentrouter.cfg file contains various configuration settings that control some of the operations of your deduplication environment.

Usually, you do not need to change settings in the file. However, in some cases, you may be directed to change settings by a Veritas support representative.

The NetBackup documentation exposes only some of the contentrouter.cfg file parameters. Those parameters appear in topics that describe a task or process to change configuration settings.

Note:

Change values in the contentrouter.cfg only when directed to do so by the NetBackup documentation or by a Veritas representative.

The contentrouter.cfg file resides in the following directories:

  • (UNIX) storage_path/etc/puredisk

  • (Windows) storage_path\etc\puredisk
