Chapter1:Introduction This chapter provides background information on NetWorker software and supported

devices. It includes the following sections:

?"About the NetWorker Product" on page10

?"Supported Devices" on page12

?"Enabler Codes" on page12

About the NetWorker Product

The NetWorker product is a suite of storage management software that provides

backup, recovery, and other services to computers with a wide variety of operating

systems and data types. NetWorker products for different operating systems are

interoperable, which provides the flexibility to design a storage management setup

that works best with the current computing environment.

The NetWorker software is distributed in the following formats:

?In a media kit of CD-ROMs that contains the software and electronic

documentation for several related EMC Legato products.

?As a downloadable archive file from the EMC Legato website.

The NetWorker product has four major components:

?NetWorker client

?NetWorker storage node

?NetWorker server

?Legato License Manager

NetWorker Client

The NetWorker client software communicates with the NetWorker server and provides

recover and ad hoc (manual) backup functionality. The NetWorker client software is

installed on all computers that are backed up to the NetWorker server.

NetWorker clients do not have to be running the same operating system as the

NetWorker server. However, to back up clients running other operating systems, the

NetWorker server must have a ClientPak? enabler for that type of client. For example,

in order for the NetWorker server for HP-UX to back up NetWorker clients on another

operating system, a separate ClientPak enabler must be purchased and entered for that

operating system.

NetWorker Storage Node

Data can be backed up directly to devices attached to either a NetWorker server or to

a NetWorker storage node. A storage node controls storage devices such as tape

drivers, autochangers, and silos.

Storage nodes depend on the NetWorker server for the following functions:

?Control over which clients use the storage node’s devices for backups.

?License management.

?Management of the client file indexes that track each client’s data.

?Management of the media database that tracks the data contained on each

volume.

NetWorker storage nodes and the NetWorker server can use different operating

systems. To use a NetWorker storage node on an HP-UX operating system with a

NetWorker server on another operating system, the storage node’s enabler on the

server must be of the same edition as the base enabler for the NetWorker server.

NetWorker Server

The NetWorker server software provides control and scheduling for NetWorker

operations. It allows you to:

?Enter the enabler licenses for the NetWorker server and all the functions the

NetWorker server controls, such as autochanger modules, additional client

connections, and ClientPak licenses.

?Define the clients, devices, and media that the NetWorker server controls.

?Define the schedules for backups and other operations.

?Monitor the results of backups and other operations.

?Manage the client file indexes that track each client’s data.

?Manage the media database that tracks the data contained on each volume.

NetWorker Console Server

All NetWorker servers and clients are managed from the NetWorker Console server.

The Console server also provides reporting and monitoring capabilities for all

NetWorker servers and clients. The Console server must in be installed on a Solaris,

Windows, or Linux host in order to administer NetWorker servers.

The Console server is accessed through a graphical interface that can be run from any

computer that has a web enabled browser. Multiple users can access the Console server

concurrently from different browser sessions. A computer that hosts the web enabled

browser can also be a NetWorker client, server, or storage node.

Legato License Manager

The Legato License Manager provides a central place for managing the licenses of all

the NetWorker clients and servers. Instead of managing licenses separately, all

NetWorker licenses can be maintained from a single computer. Installation of the

License Manager is an option when installing the NetWorker software.

For more information about the Legato License Manager, refer to the Legato License

Manager Installation and Administrator’s Guide and the Legato License Manager Release

Notes.

Supported Devices

NetWorker software supports a variety of media types and devices, either stand-alone

or in an autochanger or silo tape library. Devices can be attached to a NetWorker server

or a designated storage node. To obtain the latest list of supported devices, refer to the

Legato Hardware Compatibility Guides on the EMC Legato website at

https://www.wendangku.net/doc/5c7319813.html,.

A nonrewinding device must be used for NetWorker backups. The pathnames for

these devices must follow the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) semantic rules, for

example, /dev/rmt/c0t0d0BESTnb. The b in the pathname satisfies the semantics

requirement. If a file type device is used, enter it as a directory path (the same as for

other device types) rather than as just a filename.

The term autochanger refers to a variety of backup devices:

?Autoloader

?Carousel

?Datawheel

?Jukebox

?Library

?Near-line storage

Enabler Codes

Enabler codes (licenses), which activate the functionality of NetWorker software and

other EMC software, are sold separately.

Important: An HP Superdome computer requires a separate enabler code for each partition on which a NetWorker server or storage node runs.

For more information, see "Chapter6:Evaluating and Licensing the NetWorker Software" on page66.

Chapter2:Updating from a Previous NetWorker

Release This chapter explains how to update from a previous release of NetWorker software. It

includes the following sections:

?"Introduction" on page14

?"Updating the Software" on page14

Introduction

When updating to release 7.3 from NetWorker release 6.x or earlier, the client file

indexes are automatically reorganized into new directory structures.

Important: When updating to NetWorker release 7.3 or later format, there is no way to

revert to a previous release of the NetWorker software. It is a one-way conversion.

Updating the Software

Use the following roadmap to complete the update process by converting the media

database and the client file indexes:

?"Task 1: Prepare to Update the NetWorker Software on the NetWorker Server" on page15

?"Task 2: Update the NetWorker Software" on page15

?"Task 3: Enable and Register the Software" on page16

Note: The NetWorker index conversion from NetWorker release 5.x to the current

NetWorker release requires enough free disk space to match the largest client file index

being converted. This space is used during the conversion process and is released

when completed. Following conversion, the media database should be approximately

twice its original size. The client file indexes will be 20% to 40% smaller. These storage

requirement changes are permanent.

Task 1: Prepare to Update the NetWorker Software on the NetWorker Server Before updating the NetWorker software, see "Installation Requirements" on page18

to ensure that all the necessary requirements have been met.

To prepare to update the NetWorker software:

1.Back up all client file indexes and generate a bootstrap for the server.

If the current bootstrap and client file indexes are not backed up, perform

scheduled backups on all of the clients before updating to the current NetWorker

release.

For example, to save the bootstrap information, enter the following command:

savegrp -O group

Note: Ensure that all clients are included in the groups being backed up.

2.Record the latest bootstrap save set ID and its associated volume label. To obtain

this information, enter the following command:

mminfo -B

3.If the NetWorker indexes are not currently installed in the default location, record

the location of the client file indexes.

Task 2: Update the NetWorker Software

Note: A NetWorker storage node release 7.3 is not compatible with a NetWorker server

earlier than release 6.0. Update the NetWorker servers before updating a storage node.

To update the NetWorker software on the NetWorker client, storage node, and server:

1.Keep a copy of the current configuration.

2.Shut down the NetWorker software:

nsr_shutdown

3.Remove the earlier NetWorker release software, but do not remove the client file

indexes, the resource files, or the media database that reside in the /nsr directory.

For more information, see "Uninstalling the NetWorker Software" on page31.

4.Install the new release of the NetWorker software. For more information, see

"Installing the NetWorker Software" on page20.

Do not start the NetWorker daemons.

5.Apply any required NetWorker software patches.

6.Restart the NetWorker software by running the NetWorker startup script:

/sbin/init.d/networker start

The media database and the client file index are converted automatically when

updating from NetWorker release 5.x to the current NetWorker release.

To enhance the client file index conversion when updating from NetWorker release

5.x to the current NetWorker release, run multiple instances of the nsrck program

concurrently. This process converts multiple client file indexes in parallel. To

convert multiple client file indexes in parallel, use one of the following methods:

?Specify the client file index to convert. For example:

nsrck client_name

?Enter the nsrck command without a client name. This initiates the conversion of the next client in the list.

Each instance of nsrck occupies a portion of the server’s processing, memory,

and space-swapping capability. Ensure the index conversion speed is

balanced against other NetWorker server needs. For the best system

performance, use a diagnostic tool to determine the optimum number of

nsrck instances to launch.

7.Once the media database is converted, run scheduled backups. These backups

however, are not browsable until the associated client is converted.

New Resource Database Replaces nsr.res, nsrjb.res, and nsrla.res Files

In NetWorker releases earlier than 7.0, all resource information was stored in *.res files.

To provide better performance and improved scalability, NetWorker release 7.3

replaces the following files with a new NetWorker resource database:

/nsr/res/nsr.res

/nsr/res/nsrjb.res

The configuration information for the /nsr/res/nsr.res and the /nsr/res/nsrjb.res files now

resides in the following directory structure:

/nsr/res/nsrdb/00

.

.

.

/nsr/res/nsrdb/09

The configuration information for the NetWorker Client Execution daemon (nsrexecd)

now resides in the following directory structure:

/nsr/res/nsrla/00

.

.

.

/nsr/res/nsrladb/09

Within this directory structure, each resource is stored in a separate numbered file. As

new resources are created (such as, Client, Group, or Pool resources), new files are

added in these directories.

Task 3: Enable and Register the Software

To enable and register the NetWorker software, see "Chapter6:Evaluating and

Licensing the NetWorker Software" on page66.

Chapter3:Installing NetWorker Software on HP-UX This chapter explains how to install NetWorker software on HP-UX. It includes the

following sections:

?"Software Installation Roadmap" on page17

?"Installation Requirements" on page18

?"Installing the NetWorker Software" on page20

?"Verifying the Installation" on page27

?"Uninstalling the NetWorker Software" on page31

Software Installation Roadmap

Use the following roadmap when installing NetWorker software.

1.Review the requirements section and note the default directory location and the

installation file space requirements. See "Installation Requirements" on page18.

2.Install the required NetWorker software. See "Installing the NetWorker Software"

on page20.

To update from a previous release of NetWorker software, see

"Chapter2:Updating from a Previous NetWorker Release" on page14.

3.Verify the installation. See "Verifying the Installation" on page27.

4.Enable and register all of the NetWorker products. See "Chapter6:Evaluating and

Licensing the NetWorker Software" on page66.

Installation Requirements

The system requirements differ for each of the following installation types:

?"Client Software" on page18

?"Storage Node Software" on page18

?"Server Software" on page19

The NetWorker software must be installed in the order listed above.

Important: Before installing the NetWorker software, ensure that the operating system

is up to date with the most recent patches.

Note: The NetWorker software does not support locales (defined by the operating

system) or codesets that remap characters having special meaning for file systems.

Depending on the file system, these special characters may include the slash (/), the

backslash (\), the colon (:), or the period(.). For example, De_DE.646 is an unsupported

locale. For more information, refer to the NetWorker Administration Guide.

Client Software

The installation requirements differ, depending on whether or not the clients have the

same operating system as the NetWorker server.

To install NetWorker software on clients:

?Running the same operating system as the NetWorker server, use the same

installation media used to install the NetWorker server.

?Running a different operating system than the NetWorker server, use the

NetWorker client software for that operating system on each client computer and

purchase the required ClientPak enabler code. For more information, refer to the

appropriate installation guide.

Note: In order for NetWorker clients to use the NetWorker server to back up and

recover files, they must have the NetWorker client software installed.

Storage Node Software

At least one supported storage device must be attached and installed. The device can

be a stand-alone device, autochanger, or silo tape library. For a list of supported

devices, refer to the EMC Legato Compatibility Guides.

To prepare for installation on the computer designated as the NetWorker storage node,

ensure that an enabler code is purchased for the storage node.

Server Software

The following sections describe the NetWorker server installation requirements:

?"System Requirements" on page19

?"Space Requirements" on page19

?"Installation Requirements" on page20

System Requirements

To install NetWorker software on an HP-UX server, ensure that:

?The computer has the necessary space. For space requirements, see Table 1 on page19.

?The directory on the server is large enough for the NetWorker resources, client, server indexes, and media database (usually /nsr).

?The /opt/networker directory has enough space. If the space in /opt/networker is limited, complete one of the following steps to successfully install NetWorker

software:

–Use Logical Volume Manager (LVM) to extend the size of the volume group

on which /opt/networker/bin resides. For further information regarding LVM,

refer to the HP documentation.

–Create a symbolic link from /opt/networker t o a volume group that has enough space to contain the NetWorker software.

Space Requirements

Table 1 on page19 outlines the space requirements for the NetWorker software on the

server:

Installation Requirements

On the computer designated as the NetWorker server:

?Install the NetWorker software in the following order:

a.client

b.storage node

c.server

?Install all of the NetWorker software on the server at the same time.

During installation or upgrade of the NetWorker software on the server, keep a copy

of the current /etc/rpc and /etc/syslog.conf configuration files.

The NetWorker software overwrites the files during installation.

Installing the NetWorker Software

The following sections explain how to access and install the NetWorker software:

?"Task 1: Access NetWorker Software" on page20

?"Task 2: Install NetWorker Software" on page21

?"Task 3: Changing the NetWorker Servers with Access to a Client" on page25

?"Task 4: Start the NetWorker Daemons" on page26

Task 1: Access NetWorker Software

The NetWorker software can be accessed from the following sources:

?"From a Local CD-ROM" on page20

?"From the Website" on page21

Important: The evaluation release of the NetWorker software contains tarred and

compressed versions of the NetWorker software distribution files. Ensure that there is

adequate disk space to contain both the compressed download file (about 55 MB) and

the fully uncompressed files (about 150 MB).

From a Local CD-ROM

To access the NetWorker software from a local CD-ROM:

1.Log in as root to the system where the NetWorker software is installed.

2.Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

3.Locate the appropriate directory for the platform on the CD-ROM.
