Database Administration Utility

The NetBackup administrator can use the Database Administration utility to configure the NetBackup relational databases and to monitor database operations. To use the utility, the administrator must have root user privileges.

The NetBackup Database Administration screen displays the currently selected NetBackup database name (NBDB or BMRDB) and the status of the database:

If the database is available, the screen shows Alive and well.

If the database is unavailable, the screen shows Not available.

To select a different database, see Database selection.

The NetBackup Database Administration screen displays two tabs: General tab and Tools Tab. Each contains various tools.

The Drive Space button shows the amount of free space and utilized space on a drive. If the database files are on multiple drives, this view is useful to see which drive has more free space available.
