How To Create Backup Policy Using Netbackup10.0.x For One month


This is only a sample on creating backup policy on  Netbackup during one month.

To create a backup policy for one month using Veritas NetBackup 10.1.x, you would follow these steps:

  1. Start the NetBackup Administration Console: Open the NetBackup Administration Console on your computer and log in using your administrator credentials.

  2. Define the Backup Policy: In the NetBackup Administration Console, navigate to the Policies section, right-click on the Policies folder and select New > Policy. Give the policy a name, such as "Monthly Backup Policy" and select a Backup Schedule that best fits your needs.

  3. Select the Clients: In the Clients section, select the clients you want to be included in the backup policy. You can select multiple clients by holding down the Control (Ctrl) key while clicking on the clients.

  4. Select the Backup Types: In the Backup Types section, select the types of backups you want to perform. For a monthly backup, a Full Backup is typically the most appropriate choice.

  5. Select the Backup Selections: In the Backup Selections section, select the files and folders you want to include in the backup. You can include specific files, folders, or entire file systems.

  6. Configure the Retention Settings: In the Retention section, configure the settings for how long you want the backup data to be stored. For a monthly backup, a retention of 30 days is typical.

  7. Save and Apply the Policy: Once you have completed the policy, click on the Save button to save the policy. Then, right-click on the policy and select Apply.

  8. Monitor the Backup Job: Monitor the backup job to ensure it runs successfully. You can view the status of the job in the Jobs section of the NetBackup Administration Console.

By following these steps, you can create a backup policy for one month using Veritas NetBackup 10.1.x. It is important to regularly test your backups and ensure that you can recover data in the event of a disaster.

    Netbackup 8.1.2 Pre-Defined Roles

    Since NetBackup 8.1.2, Veritas introduced a new web user interface that provides user to access the Master server of Netbackup via browser. From this web UI, the users have a dashboard that displays a quick overview of the information that is important to backup operation. By this web UI, the administrator could configure user access to Netbackup by Role-based access control (RBAC) mechanism. By RBAC mechanism, the administrator could delegate for tasks like NetBackup security management, protection plan configuration and job management, and protection and recovery of assets to other person.

     
    By default, there are three pre-defined Roles shipped out-of-the-box to get you up and running quickly. There roles are : Backup administrator, Security administrator and Workload administrator.

    NetBackup Security administrator
    The NetBackup security administrator performs the following tasks in the NetBackup environment:
    • Manages role-based access control. This user can delegate access to NetBackup. This task includes managing the users that can access NetBackup, the role or permissions that users have, and the NetBackup assets that users can access.
    • Oversees the security management. This task includes managing NetBackup hosts and certificates, managing global security settings, and viewing security events.

    Backup administrator
    • The backup administrator performs the following tasks in the NetBackup environment:
    • Manages all jobs activity. Monitors all job operations. Able to cancel, suspend, resume, restart, and delete jobs.
      The backup administrator can also configure NetBackup to send email notifications to their ticketing system when certain job failures occur.
    • Configures protection plans for the workload administrator.
    • Views the usage reporting details on backup data size for NetBackup master servers.
    Administrator can limit access (through object groups) for users with the Backup administrator role or with a custom role. However, you cannot limit the jobs that a backup administrator can see. Users with this role can view all job activity.

    Workload administrator
    The workload administrator performs the following tasks in the NetBackup environment:
    • Manages the jobs that they initiate.
    • Manages the assets they are granted access to. Configure assets in the NetBackup environment including cloud providers, application servers, and
    • asset groups.
    • Monitors protection status and subscribes assets to protection plans.
    • Performs the recovery for assets they manage. You can limit access (through object groups) for users with the Workload administrator role.

    The NetBackup Web UI is compatible with the latest vendor-supported versions of web browsers.
    For the best experience with the NetBackup Web UI, Veritas recommends that you use Google Chrome version 60 or later or Mozilla Firefox version 65 or later, without any plug-ins.

    How NetBackup Backups the VMware Virtual Machine

    How NetBackup Backups the VMware Virtual Machine

    The growth of MWware virtual machine is getting more and more masive. Not only as a complement but now has replaced the physical server that takes up space, cost, power supply, and other large resouce.  The need for data protection from vmware has been anticipated by veritas by issuing a product that is capable of securing existing data in the vmware virtual machine called as NetBackup for VMware.

    NetBackup for VMware provides backup and restore of the VMware virtual machines that run on VMware ESX servers. NetBackup for VMware takes advantage of VMware vStorage APIs for data protection. The backup process is off-loaded from the ESX server to a VMware backup host. 

    Generally, Netbackup performs a backup process on vmware consists of 4 steps, namely:
    • Phase 1 : The NetBackup master server initiates the backup.
    • Phase 2 : The NetBackup client on the VMware backup host initiates a VMware snapshot on the virtual machine.
    • Phase 3 : Windows: VSS synchronizes the file system on the virtual machine. Linux: The SYMCquiesce utility can quiesce the file system on supported Linux operating systems.
    • Phase 4 : The VMware server creates a snapshot on the virtual disk datastore. The NetBackup client reads the snapshot from the datastores and writes the data to the NetBackup storage unit.
    NetBackup for VMware requires an Enterprise Client license for each ESX Server. To protect an application or database, note: an additional license for the appropriate NetBackup package is needed for each ESX server that hosts the application or database.
