What is HP StoreOnce Catalyst (page 90)
NOTE:
With the current version of the software there are no equivalent CLI commands available
for the tasks described in this section.
IMPORTANT:
If Catalyst operations pass through a firewall, the network administrator must open
(TCP) ports 9387 (Command protocol) and 9388 (Data protocol) to allow the Catalyst traffic to
pass to and from the HP StoreOnce Backup systems.
Licensing requirements
OST/Catalyst devices require a license to be used at both source and target but do NOT require
an additional replication license. To use the security features Data at Rest Encryption or Secure
Erase, you must apply a Security license.
OST plug-in
For supported Symantec Netbackup and Backup Exec backup products, a free plug-in application
is required on each backup application media server that will use the Catalyst functionality. This
can be downloaded from
The plug-in required is different
for Netbackup and Backup Exec.

What is HP StoreOnce Catalyst?
HP StoreOnce Catalyst is a StoreOnce function that allows:
•
Backup applications to back up data to a target store on the HP StoreOnce Backup system.
Deduplication may occur on the media server or on the HP StoreOnce Backup system.
•
Backup applications to copy jobs between HP StoreOnce Backup systems. All configuration
is carried out from the backup application, which makes this an attractive alternative to using
the replication function on the HP StoreOnce Backup system.
This function requires a backup application that supports HP StoreOnce Catalyst. The HP OST
plugins should also be installed on any Media Servers that will be transferring data to the StoreOnce
Backup system. Refer to
for up-to-date details on supported
applications.
IMPORTANT:
Much of the information displayed on the HP StoreOnce Catalyst pages is taken
directly from the backup application. It is strongly recommended to give jobs and media server
groupings names on the backup application that will be meaningful when displayed on the
StoreOnce Catalyst pages.
