Determining the database location
The NetVault Database stores system information, configuration files, job details, and backup indexes. It is created on the NetVault Backup Server.
The database continues to grow in size as various data protection operations are performed within the NetVault Backup system.
NetVault Backup operations can halt if the database cannot be updated due to lack of disk space.
NOTE: The NetVault Database cannot reside on a network mount point (for example, network share, mapped drive, NFS, or JFS mounted device).
For installing the NetVault Database, you must select a directory on a local drive or volume.
