NetVault Plug-in for NDMP 11.4 - User Guide

Configuring a NetVault Backup user account

When backing up multiple volumes, the plug-in uses the “default” user account to run child jobs. If you assign a new password to this user account, you must also update the account details in the plug-in. Otherwise, the backup jobs that include multiple volumes report an error (“unable to log in to auditor, check account and password are valid”) and fail.

1
Start the Backup Job Wizard, and click Create New next to the Selections list.
3
Select the filer, and in the Actions list, click Set Account.
4
In the NetVault Account dialog box, provide the following information:
Account: Type “default”, which is the user account used to run the subjobs.
New Password: Select the New Password check box, and specify the password set for the “default” account.

Configuring default settings

The default settings apply globally to all NDMP Servers added to the plug-in.

1
Start the Backup Job Wizard, and click Create New next to the Selections list. Open the NetVault Backup Server. Select NDMP Client, and in the Actions list, click Configure.
In the Navigation pane, click Change Settings. On the Configuration page, click Server Settings, and then click Plugin Options.

Under NDMP Backup Log Filters, configure the following settings.

Filter 1

Filter 2

...

Filter 10

To filter log messages generated during backup jobs, use these settings. The messages that contain the strings specified in these boxes are not displayed on the View Logs page. Each box can contain one filter string. Thus, you can specify a maximum of 10 filter strings in the filter boxes.

Under NDMP Backup Configuration, configure the following settings.

Maximum File Buffer Size

To increase the buffer size for file transfer to improve performance, use this setting. The maximum buffer size value depends on the resources available on the NAS Filer. A large buffer size can have a negative impact on the data transfer and overall performance.

Maximum Index Buffer Size

To increase the buffer size for the transfer of backup index entries to improve performance, use this setting. The maximum buffer size value depends on the resources available on the NAS Filer. A large buffer size can have a negative impact the data transfer and overall performance.

Codepage for UTF-8 Conversions

Type the codepage identifier for UTF-8 conversions. Use this option with the Use UTF-8 Conversions option described in Adding an NDMP Server.

Translations depend on the configuration, locale, and code sets installed on the system. For a list of codepage values, see the operating system documentation.

Use APM UTF-8 Conversion

To store and index UTF-8 character sets for browsing, select this check box. This setting allows you to browse the files in a native UTF supported language, such as Japanese. Without this setting, the plug-in indexes the files by filer‑specific NDMP metadata.

Delete Unsuccessful Jobs On Completion

By default, NetVault Backup removes the subjobs for Phase 2 backups whether the phase completes successfully or fails. To change the default behavior, use this setting. If you clear this check box, the subjobs generated during Phase 2 backups are removed only if both Phase 1 and Phase 2 backups complete successfully.

Under NDMP Restore Log Filters, configure the following settings:

Filter 1

Filter 2

...

Filter 10

To filter log messages generated during restore jobs, use these settings. The messages that contain the strings specified in these boxes are not displayed on the View Logs page. Each box can contain one filter string. Thus, you can specify a maximum of 10 filter strings in the filter boxes.

Consider the following while configuring the filter expressions for NDMP restore logs:

Configuring filer-attached devices

For administration of backups and restores to direct-attached devices, the device must be added to the NetVault Backup Server. For more information about adding storage devices to the NetVault Backup Server, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.
