Adding a master server or an appliance master server in the OpsCenter console

You must add a master server or an appliance master server to the OpsCenter console so that it can be monitored. Use the following procedure to add a master server or an appliance master server.

To add a master server or an appliance master server

  1. In the OpsCenter console, select Settings > Configurations > NetBackup .
  2. Click Add. 
  3. Enter the required details for the master server.

    See Settings > Configuration > NetBackup > Add Master Server options.

  4. Click the Test Connection button to validate the information that you entered. This would validate the credentials for the master server.
  5. Click Save and Add more to save the master server and to add more master servers.
  6. Click Save and Close to save the master server.

    Alternately, you can click Cancel to exit.

  7. In case you add an appliance 2.0 master server, restart all appliance services or processes only if OpsCenter cannot connect to the Appliance master server. See the Appliance documentation for details on how to restart services.
