Managing deduplication servers

To view deduplication storage server attributes

◆Run the following command on the NetBackup master server or a deduplication storage server:

UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbdevquery -liststs -storage_server server_name -stype PureDisk –U

Windows: install_path\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\nbdevquery -liststs -storage_server server_name -stype PureDisk –U

The following is example output:

Storage Server	: bit
Storage Server Type : PureDisk
Storage Type	: Formatted Disk, Network Attached
State	: UP
Flag	: OpenStorage
Flag	: CopyExtents
Flag	: AdminUp
Flag	: InternalUp
Flag	: LifeCycle
Flag	: CapacityMgmt
Flag	: FragmentImages
Flag	: Cpr
Flag	: FT-Transfer

This example output is shortened; more flags may appear in actual output.

Resetting the deduplication registry

If you reconfigure your deduplication environment, one of the steps is to reset the deduplication registry.

See “Reconfiguring the deduplication storage server and storage paths” on page 63.

Warning: Only follow these procedures if you are reconfiguring your storage server and storage paths.

The procedure differs on UNIX and on Windows.
