NetVault SmartDisk 11.4.5 - Administration Guide

Introducing NetVault SmartDisk Integrating NetVault SmartDisk with your backup product Using the command-line interface (CLI) Configuring NetVault SmartDisk Monitoring performance Troubleshooting

Verifying that the client ports are open

Quest recommends that you verify that the ports are open between the backup clients and the system on which NetVault SmartDisk is installed.

To verify that the ports are open, you can use a wget command, a web browser, or a different method of your choice. If the port is open, the command returns the status information.

In the following examples, replace <port#> with the applicable port number, and replace <hostName> with the IP address of the machine on which NetVault SmartDisk is installed.

Using the wget command

1
On the system on which NetVault SmartDisk is installed, type:
wget http://<localhost>:<port#>/proc/dedupe/stats.stnz
2
On each client that targets backups to the NetVault SmartDisk Device, type:
wget http://<hostName>:<port#>/proc/dedupe/stats.stnz

Using a web browser

1
On the system on which NetVault SmartDisk is installed, type:
http://<localhost>:<port#>/proc/dedupe/stats.stnz
2
On the system on which the backup server or client software is installed, type:
http://<hostName>:<port#>/proc/dedupe/stats.stnz

Adding devices to your software product

After you have installed NetVault SmartDisk, you must add it as a backup device in your software product before you can target it for backups and restores. For more information, see the documentation that came with your backup software.

 
* 
NOTE: NetVault SmartDisk does not support the NDMP Backup Restart Extension (BRE) Interface. If you are using NetVault Backup, NetVault Backup automatically selects a different device if BRE is selected on the NetVault Guide Configuration page.
