Deactivating BMR master server
Use the following procedure to de-activate BMR master server and BMR database and delete the BMR license.
After you delete the license, BMR is no longer available for use.
Note:
You can delete the BMR license only if BMR was licensed with its own key, separate from the base NetBackup product license.
To deactivate the BMR master server
- Log on as the root user on the system on which the NetBackup master server is installed.
- To de-activate BMR Master server, execute the following command:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bmrsetupmaster -undo -f
for example, on a UNIX/Linux system, run
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bmrsetupmaster -undo -f
and on Windows master, run
c:\program files\veritas\netbackup\bin\bmrsetupmaster -undo -f
- If you run BMR in a cluster environment, delete the BMR license on every system in the cluster with the BMR master server installed.
- On the NetBackup Administration Console, click Help > Licenses .
- In the NetBackup Licenses dialog box, select the BMR license from the list.
Warning:
If BMR was included as part of the base product license and you perform the following step, you delete your base license. You cannot use NetBackup. If you do not want to delete the NetBackup license, do not continue.
- Click Delete.
The BMR license is deleted from the Current Licenses dialog box. Bare Metal Restore Management is no longer appears in the NetBackup Administration Console.
In a cluster environment, unfreeze the active node after deactivating BMR from all systems. For information on how to unfreeze a service group, see the NetBackup in Highly Available Environments Administrator's Guide .
- If a BMR-specific license was added earlier, enter the following command to delete that license:
%NB_INSTALL_DIR%/bin/admincmd/get_license_key
Note:
If you remove BMR in a cluster environment, freeze the active node before you remove BMR so that migrations do not occur during removal. For information on how to freeze a service group, see the NetBackup in Highly Available Environments Administrator's Guide.
