2.5.16 Perform JP1/VERITAS backup
Function
This service template executes a backup using JP1/VERITAS NetBackup.
This service template assumes that the following servers are being used.
• Backup execution servers
A server running JP1/VERITAS NetBackup (master server).
The backup policy to be executed must already exist.
(1) The backup is executed by JP1/VERITAS NetBackup, and after backup execution finishes, the task finishes.
Prerequisites
For the latest support information about [Required product in the System]/[Prerequisite products in the system executing the service template]/[Prerequisite product OS running in the system executing the service template], see the release notes.
[Required product in the System]
JP1/Automatic Operation 11-10 or later
[Prerequisite products in the system executing the service template]
(1) JP1/VERITAS NetBackup is running
• JP1/VERITAS NetBackup 7.0, 7.1, 7.5, 7.6
[Prerequisite product OS running in the system executing the service template]
(1) Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard/Enterprise/Datacenter
(2) Windows Server 2012 Standard/Datacenter
(3) Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 6 (64-bit x86_64)
(4) Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 7 (64-bit x86_64)
(5) AIX V6.1, AIX V7.1
[Usage conditions of prerequisite products in the system executing the service template]
(1) The backup policy to be executed has been set up.
(2) Set the following to define a backup policy with JP1/VERITAS NetBackup.
• Do not set the Start Window of the schedule.
Set up schedule execution with JP1/Automatic Operation.
• Uncheck "Bare Metal Restore". This function is not supported for JP1/VERITAS NetBackup 7.0 or 7.1.
The default with JP1/VERITAS NetBackup 7.0 is for this to be checked, so be sure to confirm this prior to service execution. Other unsupported functions of JP1/VERITAS NetBackup are described in the software documentation for JP1/VERITAS NetBackup. Do not set these functions.
Cautions
(1) To cancel a backup that is being executed, you must cancel the job from the JP1/VERITAS NetBackup side.
Canceling (forced quit) of an executing task on the JP1/Automatic Operation side does not cancel a JP1/VERITAS NetBackup job.
(2) Using the following functions will cause task execution to fail. Do not use these functions.
• Backups that define multiple clients for a single backup policy
• Secondary backups when Disk Staging is used
(3) When the following functions are used, multiple instances of the JP1/VERITAS NetBackup job are executed. The task finishes normally only when all jobs are normal; the task ends abnormally in all other cases.
• Backup using multiple data streams
• Backups using multiple copies
• Catalog backups
