Task 2: Configure NetWorker Device Resources

To configure the NetWorker software:

•Configure the device resources.

–If you want to recover data using a stand-alone device, ensure that a resource for the stand-alone device exists (this is defined in the /nsr/res directory). If a resource for the stand-alone device does not exist, create it using the NetWorker Administrator program.

–If you want to recover data using an autochanger, ensure that an autochanger resource exists (this is defined in the /nsr/res directory). If the autochanger resource does not exist, create it using the jbconfig command. For information about using the jbconfig command, refer to the Legato NetWorker Administrator’s Guide.

Reset the autochanger using the nsrjb -vHEcommand. This command resets the autochanger, ejects backup volumes, reinitializes the element status, and checks each slot for a volume.

If the autochanger does not support the -Eoption, initialize the element status using sjiielm (on Linux, use ielem).

Inventory the autochanger using the nsrjb -Icommand. This helps you determine whether the volumes required to recover the bootstrap are located inside the autochanger.

Task 3: Locate the Server’s Bootstrap Save Set ID

The bootstrap contains the media database, the resource database, and the server index.
