Before You Start

Observe the following points when performing the configurations described in this

chapter:

◆ The VERITAS support web site (http://www.support.veritas.com) contains server

platform compatibility information for a number of vendors and products (see the

NetBackup Product > Compatibility area of the site). Verify that your server platform

is supported before configuring devices.

◆ For NetBackup to recognize and communicate with connected devices and for device

discovery to discover devices, NetBackup issues SCSI pass-thru commands to the

devices in a configuration.

A tape driver must exist for each tape device. Attached devices appear in the registry.

◆ Use the Microsoft Windows device applications to verify that the devices are

configured correctly. The device applications available on your server may differ

depending on your Windows operating system. Make sure you can “see” your

devices on the SAN before you install and configure the SSO option.

◆ If you have multiple devices connected to a fibre bridge, Windows may only see one

LUN. This will normally be the device with the lowest-ordered LUN.

This limitation occurs because of the default install settings for the device driver for

some fibre channel HBAs. See your vendor documentation to verify the settings.

Installing Tape Device Drivers on 32 Bit Servers

When installing NetBackup for the first time, VERITAS recommends that you install the

device drivers for your storage device after you install NetBackup software and before you

configure NetBackup.

If you are upgrading NetBackup, you can install the latest tape device drivers before you

upgrade NetBackup.

Use the device driver install wizard to install the latest device drivers.

▼ To obtain device driver installation software

If you do not have a CD-ROM, you can download the NetBackup Tape Device Driver

installation software from the VERITAS support web site.
