If a firewall exists between the master server and this media server, open the
appropriate ports as described in the link above.
■
Make sure that the date and time of this media server matches the date and
time on the master server.
The following procedure describes how to configure a new 52xx media server
appliance from theNetBackup Appliance Shell Menu.
Warning:
NetBackup appliances do not support configuring two IP addresses that
belong to the same subnet. The appliance runs on the Linux operating system and
this type of networking is a current limitation. Each bond that you create must use
an IP address that belongs to a different subnet.
Note:
You cannot remove an IP address if the appliance host name resolves to
that IP address.
Caution:
Before or immediately after initial configuration, you must change the
default maintenance password (
P@ssw0rd
) for your appliance. This password must
be provided to technical support in case you need future troubleshooting assistance.
You must change the maintenance password through the NetBackup Appliance
Shell Menu with one of the following commands:
Main > Settings > Password
maintenance
or
Main > Support > Maintenance > passwd
. For complete
information, see the
NetBackup Appliance Command Reference Guide
.
