Options to configure AdvancedDisk storage server
Description Option
The name of the NetBackup media server that has a file system
mount on the storage.
-storage_server
storage_server
Use AdvancedDisk.
-stype
hostname
A numeric value that specifies the storage server properties. For
AdvancedDisk, the default is 5 (direct attached, formatted disk).
Required only if you want to use a value other than the default.
Determine the value by adding together the numeric values of the
following properties:
■
1 - formatted disk. The disk is formatted as part of the
vendor-specific preparation; NetBackup does not format the
disk.
■
2 - raw disk. The disk is not formatted; NetBackup formats the
disk.
■
4 - direct attached. Direct-attached means that the storage server
and media server are the same NetBackup host.
■
8 - network attached. Network-attached means that the storage
server is physically distinct from the NetBackup media server.
It does not imply LAN data movement nor does it preclude Fibre
Channel as the transport for data movement.
Whether the disk is formatted and how it is attached are mutually
exclusive and complementary.
-st
storage_type
Use the same name as the storage server name.
-media_server
hostname

or duplication operations. The following are the attributes:
■

of restore operations. More than one storage server can have
the

■

restore operations. More than one storage server can have the
ReqRestore attribute.
■
