Name
bpclusterutil — Modify and configure NetBackup in a cluster.
SYNOPSIS
[-np] [-s [NBU|OC]] [-online] [-offline] [-freeze] [-unfreeze] [-startagent] [-stopagent] [-addSvc "ServiceName"] [-deleteSvc "ServiceName"] [-enableSvc "ServiceName"] [-disableSvc "ServiceName"] [-iscluster] [-isactive] [-vname] [-sharedpath]] [-addIP -virtualIP "IPString" {-prefixLength "PrefixLength"| -subnet "SubnetMask"}]
On UNIX systems, the directory path to this command is /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/
On Windows systems, the directory path to this command is install_path\NetBackup\bin\
DESCRIPTION
This command modifies and configures NetBackup in a cluster. It is available on NetBackup master and media servers.
On Windows, this command sets up the registry entries that are used for cluster configuration and then to configure the cluster. This command only modifies registry entries on the local node.
OPTIONS
- -addIP
Adds a new virtual IP resource to the existing NetBackup cluster group. The option uses the same network interface card (NIC) that was configured at initial cluster configuration. In the case of WSFC cluster, ensure that the NetBackup group is offline before you use the option. On a UNIX platform, this option is only supported for VCS.
The parameters that are shown are required for the addIP option:
virtualIP "IPString" Specifies the virtual IP address you want to add.
prefixLength "PrefixLength" When the virtualIP specified is an IPv6 address, you must use prefixLength to specify the prefix length. Please note that prefixLength and subnet are mutually exclusive.
subnet "SubnetMask" When the virtualIP specified is an IPv4 address, you must use subnet to the subnet mask for the IP address. Please note that prefixLength and subnet are mutually exclusive.
- -addSvc "Service Name"
Adds a NetBackup service to the NetBackup cluster group.
- -deleteSvc "ServiceName"
Deletes an existing NetBackup service from the NetBackup cluster group. Ensure that ServiceName is provided within double quotes. For example, "NetBackup Key Management Service" for the key management service.
- -disableSvc "ServiceName"
Disables monitoring of a NetBackup service by the cluster.
- -enableSvc "ServiceName"
Enables the cluster to monitor a NetBackup service you added to the NetBackup cluster group.
- -freeze
Freezes the NetBackup cluster group. This option is available on UNIX systems only.
- -isactive
Displays the state of the NetBackup cluster group on the node. A return code of 1 indicates that the node is the active node. A return code of 0 indicates that the node is an inactive node.
- -iscluster
Displays the cluster status of NetBackup.
- -np
Places the operation in silent mode (no print).
- -offline
Issues the offline command to the NetBackup group in the cluster.
- -online
Issues the online command to the NetBackup group in the cluster.
- -s [NBU | OC]
Selects the clustered server type. The possible values are NBU (NetBackup) and OC (Add-onProductShortName1;).
- -sharedpath
Displays the shared path of the clustered server.
- -startagent
Starts the NetBackup Cluster Server (VCS) agent.
- -stopagent
Stops the NetBackup VCS agent.
- -unfreeze
Unfreezes the NetBackup cluster group. This option is available on UNIX systems only.
- -vname
Displays the virtual name of the NetBackup cluster group. This option is available on UNIX systems only.
EXAMPLES
To add a virtual IPV4 resource to cluster group run the command shown:
bpclusterutil -addIP -virtualIP 10.210.91.56 -subnet 255.255.252.0
To add a virtual IPV6 resource to cluster group run the command shown:
bpclusterutil -addIP -virtualIP 2620:128:f0a1:9003::15d -prefixLength 64
