To prohibit reverse host name lookup by using the

bpsetconfig

command

Enter the following command on each media server that you use for
deduplication:

echo REVERSE_NAME_LOOKUP = PROHIBITED | bpsetconfig -h host_name

The

bpsetconfig

command resides in the following directories:

UNIX:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd

Windows:

install_path\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\admincmd

The disk pool wizard does not display a volume

The Disk Pool Configuration Wizard does not display a disk volume for the
deduplication storage server.

First, restart all of the NetBackup daemons or services. The step ensures that the
NetBackup Deduplication Engine is up and ready to respond to requests.

Second, restart the NetBackup Administration Console. This step clears cached
information from the failed attempt to display the disk volume.

Verify that the server has sufficient memory

Insufficient memory on the storage server can cause operation problems. If you
have operation issues, you should verify that your storage server has sufficient
memory.

See

“About deduplication server requirements”

on page 23.

If the NetBackup deduplication processes do no start on Red Hat Linux, configure
shared memory to be at least 128 MB (

SHMMAX=128MB

).
