Cannot create a cloud storage
If you cannot create a cloud storage in NetBackup, verify the following:
The
cacert.pemfile is present on both NetBackup master and media server in following locations:UNIX/Linux -
/usr/openv/var/webtruststoreWindows -
<install_path>/var/webtruststore
On media server versions 7.7.x to 8.1.2, if the
cacert.pemfile is not present, run the nbcertcmd -getCACertificate on the master server. After running this command, restart the NetBackup CloudStore Service Container.See the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide for a complete description of the command.
Note:
This cacert.pem file is a NetBackup-specific file. This file includes the CA certificates generated by the NetBackup authorization service.
The
cacert.pemfile is same on the NetBackup master and media server.For media server versions 7.7.x to 8.1.2, the machine certificate is present in following locations:
UNIX/Linux -
/usr/openv/var/vxss/credentialsWindows -
<install_path>/var/vxss/credentials
If the security certificate is not present, run the bpnbaz -ProvisionCert on the master server. After running this command, restart the NetBackup CloudStore Service Container on the master and media server.
For media server versions 7.7.x to 8.1.2, the NetBackup CloudStore Service Container is active.
See Stopping and starting the NetBackup CloudStore Service Container.
The option on the NetBackup master server is selected if the media server is of the version 8.0 or earlier. The option is available in the NetBackup Administration Console on the Security Management > Global Security Settings > Secure Communication tab.
On the media server, if the certificate deployment security level if set to Very High, automatic certificate deployment is disabled. An authorization token must accompany every new certificate request. Therefore, you must create an authorization token before deploying the certificates.
See the 'Creating authorization tokens' topic in the NetBackup™ Security and Encryption Guide for detailed steps.
