About provisioning the disk storage appliance
If your storage is provided by a disk appliance, you must install and configure the
disk storage appliance in your backup environment. The appliance must be
operational before you can use it for backups.
Specifically, do the following:
■
Add the appliance to your environment.
■
Install the vendor software packages on all NetBackup media servers that
connect to the appliance.
See “About installing the disk appliance plug-in” on page 78.
■
Perform vendor-specific steps to configure the appliance. Use the vendor’s
processes and procedures to configure the appliance so that it works with your
environment. To configure the storage, you may be required to do the following:
■
Assign the appliance a name. NetBackup uses the name to identify the
appliance.
■
Divide the appliance into one or more logical units of space. NetBackup
refers to these logical units as disk volumes. NetBackup aggregates the disk
volumes into disk pools.
