To determine deduplication storage server state

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

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

Getting the storage server configuration

Symantec recommends that you get and save the storage server configuration.
Getting and saving the configuration can help you with recovery of your
environment.

If you get the configuration of a storage server that is unavailable because of a
disaster, NetBackup returns a template configuration file.

To get the storage server configuration

On the master server, enter the following command:

UNIX:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbdevconfig -getconfig

-storage_server sshostname -stype PureDisk -configlist file.txt

Windows:

install_path\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\nbdevconfig -getconfig

-storage_server sshostname -stype PureDisk -configlist file.txt

For sshostname, use the name of the storage server. For file.txt, use a file name
indicates its purpose.

Editing a storage server configuration file

In some very limited situations, you may need to create a storage server
configuration file that includes the configuration settings for your environment.

For example, for disaster recovery you may need to edit a template file to create
a configuration file for your environment.
