In some very limited situations, you may need to edit a storage server configuration file so that it 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 to recover the storage server.
See About the deduplication storage server configuration file.
To edit the storage server configuration
If you did not save a storage server configuration file, get a storage server configuration file.
See Getting the storage server configuration.
If you get the configuration of a storage server that is unavailable because of a disaster, NetBackup returns a template configuration file.
Use a text editor to enter or change values.
For a template configuration file, enter the appropriate information in the second set of quotation marks in each line, replacing the default values. The values should be the same as those you used when you configured the storage server initially.
The following are the values that are required:
If the database path is the same as the storage path, enter the same value for storagepath and dbpath.
The required_interface is required only if you configured one initially; if a specific interface is not required, leave it blank. The required interface defaults to the computer's hostname.
Values for the other configuration parameters are optional and not required for a recovery situation.
