Veritas NetBackup™ OpenStorage Solutions Guide for Disk

Determining OpenStorage storage server state

Use the NetBackup nbdevquery command to determine the state of an OpenStorage storage server.

To determine OpenStorage storage server status

  • Run the following command:

    UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbdevquery -liststs -stype server_type -storage_server server_name -U

    Windows: install_path\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\nbdevquery -liststs -stype server_type -storage_server server_name -U

    For the server_type, the storage vendor provides the string that identifies the server type.

    The State field of the command output shows either UP or DOWN.
