nvaddfiler

Description

Adds an NDMP filer to the NetVault Backup Server.

Syntax

nvaddfiler [-servername <Server Name>] [-clientname <Client Name>]
[-pluginname <Plug-in Name>] -filername <Filer Name> -address <IP address or FQDN> [-port <Port number>] -account <User Name> -password <Password>
[-description <Description>] [-utf8 <Boolean>]

Table 12. nvaddfiler

Specifies the name of the NetVault Backup Server that administers the job.

This option is required when a remote server administers the job. It can be omitted when a local server administers the job. The server name is case‑sensitive.

-clientname

Specifies the name of the NetVault Backup Client to which the filer is added.

This option can be omitted if you want to add the filer to the local machine. If you specify -servername, you must also specify -clientname even if they are the same machine.

-pluginname

Specifies the plug-in name. It can be NDMP Client or NDMP SnapMirror to Tape. The default value is NDMP Client.

-filername

Specifies the filer name.

The filer name must be unique. You can assign the actual name of the filer to easily identify it in the NetVault Backup environment. The filer name cannot be changed once it is configured.

-address

Specifies the IP4 address or FQDN of the filer.

-port

Specifies the listen port for the filer. The default value is 10000.

Unless otherwise required, do not change listener port for the filer.

-account

Specifies the name of the user account that can be used to log on to the filer. The user account must have necessary permissions to perform NDMP backups and restores.

-password

Specifies the password for the user account.

-description

Provides NDMP filer description when filer type needs to be selected. The description must match the corresponding entry in the ndmpversions.cfg file.

-utf8

Specifies whether UTF-8 conversions are required or not.

The default value for this option is FASLSE. Set it to TRUE if you want to correctly display the directory and filenames in the set locale on NetVault WebUI. You can use this option only if the file supports UTF-8 encoding. To use this feature, do the following:

•

Enable UTF-8 conversion on the filer.

•

Set the appropriate language-type on each target volume.

•

Set the configuration option Codepage for UTF-8 Conversions for the Plug-in for NDMP. For more information about this option, see the Quest NetVault Backup Plug-in for NDMP User’s Guide.

Examples

•

Add filer “f740” to the local NetVault Backup machine:

nvaddfiler -filername f740 -address 10.11.22.53 -account root
-password mypassword

•

Add filer “f740” to “Client-A” that is controlled by the local NetVault Backup Server:

nvaddfiler -clientname Client-A-filername f740 -address 10.11.22.53 -account root -password mypassword

•

Add filter “f740” to the remote server named “Win-Server”:

nvaddfiler -servername Win-Server -clientname Win-Server -filername f740
-address 10.11.22.53 -account root -password mypassword
