Example using the Backup network drives attribute

In the following example, assume the following:

The following procedure backs up the folder share on win_PC through win_client.

The following procedure backs up the folder TestData on win_PC through win_client.

To back up the example folder

  1. On the NetBackup master server, master1, select Backup network drives in the policy to be used for the backup.

  2. On win_client, the NetBackup client:

    • Change the NetBackup Client Service on win_client to Start Up or Log On with the same account as the user that performs the backup. This user account must have read permissions for the share that is to be backed up. The account must have write permission to perform restores.

    • Stop and start the NetBackup Client Service so the new account takes effect.

    • Create a bpstart_notify.bat file that maps a drive on win_client to \\win_PC\share.

      Enter the command:

      net use X: \\win_PC\share
      

      Where X: is the mapped drive letter.

  3. To run a user backup, expand the Network node in the Backup, Archive, and Restore client interface to win_PC. Select TestData.

  4. Scheduled backups run as scheduled or when a manual backup is performed.
